The Secretary of State should read this & hang her head in shame. She enabled Ofsted to do their own rebrand; she was content they disregarded professional responses to the “Big Pretend to Listen; and if tragedy recurs she will have, in my view, serious questions to answer.

I’ve been away for a bit. We haven’t been having the best time, to be honest. I’ve noticed a few things happening with Ofsted and their supporters recently, and I’ve written about it. Ofsted, of course, are driving on regardless. difficultlessons.wordpress.com/2026/03/17/dri…

The negative impact on school leaders who receive vexatious AI-driven letters of complaint now seems to be getting out of hand. It’s dominating many of our calls. We seem to be at the tipping point. What advice can we give to colleagues? How can we move forward? Thoughts? ⤵️

It was great getting the @Headrest_UK team together for a catch-up today. Lots to discuss, but 5 key themes emerged based on calls received: 1. Ofsted 2. MAT toxicity 3. Finance 4. Parental complaints (AI) 5. Small schools Look out for some blogs to follow on these. 1/2
