Ofsted inspectors have been 'refused entry' to a school after the headteacher's death, it's been reported. Ruth Perry, who was headteacher at Caversham Primary School in Reading, took her own life in January while waiting for a negative Oftsed report.
Ms Perry, 53, had been told that her school was being downgraded from 'Outstanding' to 'Inadequate' after experiencing the "worst day of her life" when inspectors visited on November 15 and 16 last year. Flora Cooper, Executive Headteacher at the John Rankin Schools, Newbury, now says she has told inspectors not to turn up for a scheduled inspection, reports BerkshireLive.
In a tweet, Ms Cooper said: "I've just had the call. I've refused entry.
