A bit of a round up of the week below.

When you think that you can't be surprised or shocked any more, you read the headlines that are coming from the Ruth Perry inquest.

Reading headteacher Ruth Perry wanted to 'disappear' after Ofsted inspection, inquest hears

Ofsted accused of ‘misleading’ inquest into death of teacher Ruth Perry

Headteacher who took own life described Ofsted inspector as 'bully'

Reading headteacher Ruth Perry wanted to 'disappear' after Ofsted inspection, inquest hears

Inspection played part in Ruth Perry’s death - GP

‘Direct link’ between Ruth Perry’s death and Ofsted inspection, inquest told

Ruth Perry ‘amazed’ more heads did not kill themselves, inquest hears

More than seven in ten teachers suffer depression and anxiety during Ofsted inspections as impact of visits on mental health is laid bare after headteacher Ruth Perry's death

Then you read that Ofsted may have mislead the inquest in relation to the evidence that they gave in relation to the wellbeing training given to inspectors, and you get a little bit more angry.

It is time for change, there has to be a different way.

The Beyond Ofsted Inquiry report is now available, give it a read.

 

I am sharing a couple of links.

Ruth Perry's family were refused legal aid and have launched a Go Fund Me Fundraiser to help with their legal costs for the inquest.  Please check it out and help if you can, it is so sad that they have been put in this position Go Fund Me - Fund family’s legal costs for Ruth Perry inquest

While reading through headlines and stories I came across @Edmund_B_W on Twitter/X he is worth a follow and check out his blog
