The first 100 inspections have been completed. All were volunteers but the outcomes are becoming clear. Achievement - or should I say attainment - is already the bugbear for schools with challenging catchments. This framework is primed to be a disaster for them. ‘Taking Control 3’ and me can help.

Ofsted books are Ofsted books. They help schools and that’s great and why I write them, but I’m really excited about my first novel!!!!

Here’s the cover. Out 27th March! Eeek!

He’s not the brightest crisp in the bag, is he?

Exciting! My debut novel, ‘Frost Patterns’ is ready for the printers and I have a tentative publication date of 27th March.

Watch this space. 😱😬😬😬😬

New Year and a new term coming some will have got their pens & pencils out already, well before the return.

If you are a Head & you are thinking of working on your SEF, because Ofsted are due, please consider enjoying the rest of your holiday instead. message me. I’ve written hundreds. I can help.

Your opinion is noted. Maybe, in this instance, it’s because Adam Boxer thinks that Teacher Tapp is ‘Cold, hard research’, whereas almost everyone else in education thinks that is total bollox.

Do you agree it is ‘Cold, hard, research’ Oliver - and please try to answer the question in your reply.

Soon, honest, ref!

Adrian Gray, former senior HMI and adviser to the recent Education Select Committee on work of Ofsted, is worth following on Linkedin. His latest analysis of L&M grades makes clear the hole Ofsted has dug for itself. www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

As Nike say, Just do it!

I really tried with Bluesky, but there's just not the critical mass!

All good! I hope it’s the same with you! I can’t bring myself to break my Twitter ties yet. I’m not yet brave enough! I pop on here, but I’m posting on Twitter. I tried both, but it was too much.

Thanks Simon. I followed all, but some have closed minds to debate and criticism. three are on your tags!!! But thanks anyway.

Agreed Rae. But I feel the lead has to come from government.

This week is shaping up to be quite challenging. I've recently stepped into the role of Deputy Head, but our Headteacher has been signed off due to severe stress and anxiety.
