Amanda Spielman, chief inspector of Ofsted, is nominated for a House of Lords position amid backlash following Ruth Perry's suicide, which was linked to a severe Ofsted inspection. Perry's family and educational leaders criticized the nomination as an affront, given the coroner's findings that the inspection contributed to her death. Prof Julia Waters condemned the honor, stating Spielman's actions and the inspection system are to blame for Perry's tragic outcome. Despite scrutiny, Spielman claimed the inspection was executed without errors, further intensifying criticism of her legacy within the education sector.
Amanda Spielman's legacy is indelibly associated with my sister's terrible, preventable death and with defending the unaccountable, inhumane system that led to her death.
Spielman, however, said in interviews last year that her organisation made no errors during the inspection.
