Members at a leading teaching union have labelled education watchdog Ofsted’s a 'peddler of misery' and called for an end to their 'reign of terror.' A motion calling for Ofsted to be abolished was approved at the NASUWT’s annual conference in Glasgow today (Monday).
Union delegates told the conference they live and work in “fear” of inspections which rate schools in England between “outstanding” and “inadequate”.
The NASUWT has joined the National Education Union (NEU) in calling for an immediate freeze of inspections to allow for full mental health assessments to be carried out on teachers and school leaders.
