Teachers Talk Radio Julia Waters on incoming OFSTED changes: TTR Special
Julia Waters, the sister of Ruth Perry, sits down with Tom Rogers to discuss the latest with regards to OFSTED.
Julia Waters joins us to discuss the latest developments surrounding Ofsted's proposed inspection reforms and the emotional and professional toll the system continues to take on school leaders. Julia, who became a campaigner following the tragic death of her sister, headteacher Ruth Perry, shares candid reflections on the Department for Education's consultation process, her meetings with Ofsted Chief Inspector Martin Oliver, and the open letter calling for urgent reform.
Julia challenges the logic of the proposed "report card" system, raises concerns about teacher well-being and accountability, and urges leaders to listen, act, and protect those at the heart of education.
