  1. Can education ratings, statistics be deceptive. Does the Goverment focus on statistics rather than wellbeing, happy futures. Michael Gove in 2012 made schools previously rated outstanding exempt from Ofsted inspections. So then the records are then deceptive, schools just once rated outstanding and that grading is held without reassessment. In 2021, 3,700 had not been inspected for 10 years or more. In 2023, 3,000. The Goverment was risking child safety by exempting inspection. Goverment has also cut funding of Ofsted repeatedly, to 2023 at a quarter of what it was twenty years ago.Vists forced to be shorter, compacted stress due to lack of funds. Seems Goverment is about labelled results rather than wellbeing of students or teachers. The Ruth Perry tragedy, her school had not been inspected since 2009 until 2022. Downgraded to inadequate on safeguarding the knowledge, protocols, report keeping. Even though 2009 inspection was with different management, head teacher Mrs Chris Tomkins, with Ruth becoming the head later in 2009. New management, head teacher, commonsense would be to reinspect a year in but no, that was not part of the Goverment regulations to my understanding. Goverment was negligent. So how do you know the system is truly working, children are safe, welfare, mental health of student and teachers. Long-term not deceptively labelled results for the current Goverment.
