Sure start was one of the biggest investments to our country and our children. A dedication by the treasury at 99-2010. Let’s not forget it was a choice but a clear one for our children, families and the future. Thank you Gordon Brown for your investment and drive at the time.

We are hiring! This is an exciting time for Stripey Stork as we prepare to ‘spread our wings’ so that we are available to every family who need us in Surrey. We are currently recruiting for 5 paid roles. Details are on our website.

100% agree, compounded by the fact that it’s so difficult to apply for extra funding to provide these services without a charity reg number. How schools will continue to fund these necessary “extras” is a mystery and a serious consideration.

A message to anyone who needs this right now, from Untangle

As if the status isn’t enough, don’t the comments prove the systems are NOT working and we’re going to be handling more serious case reviews, how are we supposed to cope in schools 😟

I know I'm like a broken record about Ofsted at the moment & I'm sorry if I annoy anyone or cause offence. I care deeply about the well-being of my colleagues & creating the best environment for my kids and 100% believe that the whole accountability process could be done so much…

Let’s watch it all over again, the madness, the chaos and most of all the love Dave McPartlin I don’t know if I want to be a child, a teacher or a Governor at your school, but the way the little one at the end runs towards you says so much about your care for your children

Has an Ofsted inspection - the anticipation, the preparation, the process itself, the report or the period afterwards - ever negatively affected you or anyone you personally know?

(Eg mental health; physical health; workload; career; home-life, etc)

Please respond & Retweet.

Grant an inquiry of the Ofsted inspection at Caversham Primary School - Sign the Petition! chng.it/CLvqs5ws via Change.org UK

In January 2022, Ofsted had 1170 inspectors, according to a Schools Week article.

Of that total number, 800 were serving headteachers or school leaders.

That's 68% of the inspecting workforce.

The power to bring real change to Ofsted comes from within the profession.

The system IS broken and I seriously don’t know how long we’ll be able to carry on without breaking ourselves. #Teachers are educators and shouldn’t need to be Social Workers

If Tory MPs were so “bothered” about children they wouldn’t have decimated services such as CAMHs, smashed apart Sure Start, voted to not fund FSM during the pandemic, ignored expert advice on building back effectively after the pandemic.

Doesn’t seem they are that “bothered”

I was a doctor.
3 yrs ago I retrained as a primary teacher.

Here are 3 things I learnt from being a class teacher that make me a better doctor.
