Government pushes ahead with reform agenda by scrapping single headline Ofsted judgements for schools with immediate effect.
Single headline grades for schools will be scrapped with immediate effect to boost school standards and increase transparency for parents, the government has announced today.
Reductive single headline grades fail to provide a fair and accurate assessment of overall school performance across a range of areas and are supported by a minority of parents and teachers.
The change delivers on the government’s mission to break down barriers to opportunity and demonstrates the Prime Minister’s commitment to improve the life chances of young people across the country.
