Remove Amanda Spielman as Ofsted Chief Inspector
We feel the appointment of Amanda Spielman as Ofsted Chief Inspector represents a clear conflict of interests, given her lack of teaching experience and as a Director of Ask, a company focused on building an Academy chain.
This appointment does not represent good value for money for taxpayers and we want her removed from this post immediately.
This appointment does not represent good value for money for taxpayers and we want her removed from this post immediately.
Why is this important?
The track record of academy schools is mixed at best with little or no added value achieved in comparison with state schools. Amanda's biased credentials cannot provide an independent perspective on the future of schools. This compromises Ofsted's value and significantly threatens children's education.
