I think itās time to enjoy retirement. Schools who are more welcoming to children with SEN are more likely to be downgraded for inclusion. That is wrong. Simple. Iāve seen schools who actively discourage pupils with SEN get a strong grade for inclusion. Requires Improvement.

Has #Ofsted made any official response to these devastating findings? How could it give these terrifying abusive culture an āOutstandingā report Sir Martin Oliver? @tombennett71 @bphillipsonMP is there no regard for child safeguarding at Ofsted?

You canāt build a successful education system around shame, embarrassment, detention & exclusion. You canāt create inclusion for all via a curriculum that only works for some. So as the saying goes āIf the child doesnāt learn the way you teach, start teaching the way they learn.ā

The latest ofsted model will simply perpetuate, or possibly worsen, what is already happening. It is a dead parrot simple as that. The selection by compliance schs will continue to be rewarded. The inclusive ones will live in fear of the next insp. People will be damaged again

An expert in the field just told me, 'Of the 190,000 informed today of grade 3 in English Language, about 37,000 should have been awarded grade 4, and a handful, grade 5.
Those 37,000 were not awarded Grade 4 because Ofqual failed to deliver a reliable grade.'
