ONE or two-word Ofsted inspection grades for England’s schools are being scrapped immediately reports the BBC.

Overall grade categories of Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement and Inadequate will no longer be issued. 

The government said the change, which follows the suicide of headteacher Ruth Perry in 2023, was needed to reduce the high stakes for schools and give parents a better picture.

Ofsted will still inspect schools against the same standards, and reports will continue to give details on specific aspects of how a school is performing, as they do now.
