Martyn Oliver says he wants school leaders "to feel comfortable and motivated... not anxious but energised" by this term's changes to Ofsted inspections. If that's really what he wants he should have brought in sensible, serious reforms... https://t.co/30eVET26ll

Ofsted has finally published its new inspection arrangements: two defiant fingers jabbed up at the World and waggled in the faces of those who had dared to hope for change. 5 grades (up from 4) wit…

Depressing. @Ofstednews - institutionally defensive .. far far too much power and run by a series of people with inflated view of their rightness and who really think all the ‘fuss’ is just stuff and nonsense to be dismissed. I don’t think they give a damn.

@Dotmay47 @Ofstednews Ofsted are frighteningly underestimating the stress they cause. Political leaders in government are doing likewise. This nonsense has gone too far. Nothing has been learnt.

Don’t forget that with all the debate around the future of Ofsted, this new book shines a light on how accountability can be fixed in schools.

Christianity and classical liberalism—can they coexist? Carl Trueman and Vincent Phillip Muñoz debate the biggest questions facing American conservatism. Christian nationalism. Post-liberalism. Government's role in virtue. Where nationalism becomes dangerous. FULL
