In a recent webinar, the new Secretary of State for Education spoke about her commitment to work positively with the education sector, and was refreshingly open in admitming that she might make mistakes. This Schools Week article summarises her main talking points:
- Ofsted needs view of ‘wider range of services’
- ‘High standards and curriculum breadth’
- Review will ‘recognise’ existing work
- ‘Rising standards, regardless of school type’
- Support staff body will look at progression
- Looking ‘right across the board’ at behaviour
- ‘Our fiscal inheritance is dire’
- ‘I’ll make mistakes’
