The sister of a headteacher who took her own life after her school was downgraded to “inadequate” has pledged to continue campaigning to end one-word judgments after Ofsted said it would not remove them.
Professor Julia Waters, whose sister Ruth Perry died in January, said she and “the majority of the teaching profession” would continue to push for reform of the system that can sum up a whole school with one word — including “inadequate” or “outstanding”.
