IS OFSTED FAIR TO SMALL SCHOOLS? This topic has been with us ever since the new framework was introduced in 2019. The framework was intended to be applicable to all types of schools equally....but is it? A good evaluation system will hold people to account for what they control, not for their context, so this is an important question. #ofsted #primaryeducation My latest YouTube video brings together some of the evidence and opinion. https://lnkd.in/eSy8qQeM

Interesting review of the evidence on the characteristics of effective Charter Schools: it’s mainly their ability to implement the known characteristics of effective schools that makes the difference rather than being particularly innovative. https://lnkd.in/emzZsYnJ

The system of one-word Ofsted judgements for schools in England should stay, according to the government. It said the grades, such as "outstanding" or "inadequate", gave parents an important summary of local schools. What are your thoughts on the one-word judgements? https://bit.ly/3UwHlhQ #ReedEducation #education #Ofsted #inspections #schools

It is much more difficult for governments to weaponise and tokenise education as a political football without single-word judgements. They were never going to get rid of them, because then there would be no (over) simplistic way of ‘proving’ that a government had improved the education of our children. Who wants to get on with the complex, expensive and painstaking job of improving something, when you simply manipulate a system to make it look like you have instead? #education #politics #schoolimprovement #socialmobility

The Department for Education has announced, in a statement to the House of Commons Education Select Committee, that Ofsted single word gradings should remain, despite calls for change from the profession. The #DfE highlighted the "succint" overview that judgements offer but how does this capture the breadth of the school? I am keen to hear views from across the profession on this. Please share in the comments to get the discussion going. ⬇️ #Ofsted #Inspections #SingleWordGradings #Education #Teaching Association of School and College Leaders National Education Union NAHT - The school leaders' union NASUWT Chartered College of Teaching

Helping school leaders raise achievement, progress and aspirations of their students and staff through literacy interventions and whole school literacy programmes.
It's time to get serious with this now. The widening gap in GCSE outcomes for students from disadvantaged backgrounds has to be a laser focus for our new government. There are schools across the land doing exceptional work, and yet the rhetoric remains the same. How are we connecting the dots? How are we making sure this best practise is shared far and wide? We need a holistic, sustainable solution which will need to involve some radical shifts. The tricky thing with education reform is nobody wants it to happen whilst their children are in school. Nobody wants their children to be the 'test case'. However, if we don't start to do something drastic, we will loose people.

Pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds are almost two years behind their peers by age 16, having fallen further behind since 2019, reveals an Education Policy Institute report out last week.

Its official, our school estates are in disrepair. Panorama thinks so too! Who’s watched Panorama’s ‘Britain’s Crumbling Schools’? Within the first 20 seconds we hear from a Headteacher who said “everyday I come in, there’s a new problem”. The eye-opening documentary shines a light on the challenges faced by our education system. From dilapidated buildings and outdated facilities to teachers and support staff at the end of their tether, it’s clear the structural and systematic issues within our schools are having a tangible impact on the learning experience of our children. What’s more, there seems to be a stark disparity in infrastructure between schools in different regions with funding issues and bureaucratic hurdles leading to an education landscape where some schools are left to crumble while others thrive. And it’s not just the students who are suffering. Educators are experiencing unprecedented levels of burn out and stress. With limited resources and outdated facilities, they’re finding themselves grappling with insufficient materials, inadequate technology and classroom spaces that are anything but conducive to effective education. And with a steady influx of passionate and dedicated educators needed to shape the future of education, this is extremely worrying. At RAD, we are passionate about enhancing the student and teacher experience. If you have an issue with your estate, whether it’s beyond repair or curriculum changes mean you need to update spaces, contact us for a free consultation. We can deliver a full turnkey solution, or simply plug the gaps. https://lnkd.in/egWEstBz
