"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"The impact of Ofsted's new school inspection system on headteachers' mental health will now be monitored following an agreement with the watchdog. Ofsted and the school leaders' union NAHT will collaborate to assess how the updated report card system affects headteacher wellbeing. This move comes after the NAHT repeatedly raised concerns, and after Ofsted scrapped single-word judgments in 2024 amid criticism of the framework following headteacher Ruth Perry's death."
"It is crucial that we have independent data that gives clear and honest feedback from leaders who have experienced inspection. We look forward to working with Ofsted and (Department for Education) officials through the new advisory group to ensure that school leader wellbeing is being prioritised and action taken to support and protect them before, during and after the inspection process."
The Independent is soliciting donations to fund journalists and keep reporting free and accessible without paywalls, funded by those who can afford it. Coverage highlights include reproductive rights, climate change, Big Tech investigations, and a documentary on American women fighting for reproductive rights. Ofsted and the school leaders' union NAHT will monitor the impact of the updated inspection and report card system on headteacher mental health following repeated NAHT concerns. Ofsted scrapped single-word judgments in 2024 after criticism linked to headteacher Ruth Perry's suicide when her school was downgraded. NAHT seeks independent data and a new advisory group to prioritise and protect school leader wellbeing during inspections.
