Have you heard the recent news about Ofsted inspections?❗ You likely have already, but in short, the inspections have been pushed back due to Sir Martyn Oliver, the new boss at Ofsted, wanting to investigate how inspections are done after the sad death of headteacher Ruth Perry.

Those questions include: - How might 'nurturing' look like in the senior phase of secondary education? - What does 'child-centred' look when working towards national exams? - How can a teacher (or school) let their pupils know that they care about whole humans not just their academic scores? - How can a teacher emphasise the formative nature of assessment?
