Ofsted inspections are completely toxic and serve no purpose

Schools obviously need to be independently inspected it's mad to suggest they just be left to get on with it - however, it does seem cruel for inspections to have expectations that can't be met due to budgeting reasons. Schools are underfunded and the expectations placed on them should reflect that. Of course they're not doing a great job.

Her mind must have also been very very unstable. A bad school report cannot be blamed for her suicide.
At least I don't think it can. |

i don't know enough about the circumstances of the bad report, it's very sad that the head teacher felt so bleak that she took her own life. Of course inspections are necessary, it doesn't surprise me that teachers are using the situation to make a point

I'm sure there were other factors, not just Ofsted.
The inspection may have pushed her over the edge, sadly.

I'm not saying it's RIGHT that they come down on her BTW, they should at the moment mostly come down on the government who are not properly funding and supporting education just like everything else. Teachers are doing their best with the resources they have - but it's often just not enough.

I agree.
It's a lack of budget in most cases rather than them being woke. Although I'll never forget at the School that I went to where they rewarded bullies with day trips out of the School.

R.I.P.P. (perfect peace). Whatever other issues she did or didn’t have suicide’s always sad. I don’t know why some people struggle to comment appropriately when it comes to things like this.
