Ofsted reports serm to be running behind. Expectation is to have drafts to school with 18 working days and final publication within 30 working days Seeing many who are outside that window. Schools advise of delays in them getting drafts within 18.

I urge everyone to fill this in. Screen-based assessments will be a disaster for England’s schools. The entire proposal is absurd & a complete waste of taxpayer money. 30% of students fail Eng / Maths: invest in this instead. 😡 ofqual.citizenspace.com/public/regulat…

Talking to my 2ic this week. We both walk into the same classes and see very different lessons. Kids tend to go quiet when I walk in, I suspect some staff react differently when I walk in. I’m not sure how I solve this.

Flintoff's Field of Dreams is just brilliant television. Fantastic to see Blackpool represented in the new series. Freddie seems to really understand the value of opportunity for our young people.
