The headteacher died following a report which downgraded the school
Ofsted inspectors have now upgraded a school previously run by a headteacher who took her own life. The primary has now been rated as good following a previous inadequate rating.
In a copy of the new report seen by the PA news agency, inspectors said: “The school’s work to address previous weaknesses has been swift, thorough and effective. Straight after the last inspection, useful advice was sought from beyond the school. In particular, this helped leaders to understand fully the extent of the weaknesses in safeguarding arrangements and prioritise what needed to be done.
There have been widespread calls for Ofsted to revamp its school ratings system – which uses summative words such as “outstanding” and “inadequate” – following Ms Perry’s death.
