And there you have it……..the route to forced academisation, that is what inspection has become. Ofsted is not independent. Please DO read this thread from @Edmund_B_W

Thinking out loud. School leaders/teachers/staff have worked so damn hard this week, often taking decisions ahead of any guidance. In the light of the sad death of a HT of #Covid_19 and the irresponsible behaviour of some members of the public is it right to ask schs to open?

@Ancalled @GreenWalker92 @cprazevedo @Chimpy_Harry Thanks for confirming you support the killing of over 20,000 civilians, majority of them women and children, the bombing of refugees camps, hospitals and places of worship. Oh let’s not forget the desecration of cemeteries. Nor 100s of doctors, academics, journalists killed.

Anyone know/understand the logic of why no masks for primary? Esp with Omicron seemingly taking over. What inherent protection do primary children have that they lose at age 11?
