Most of the 'outstanding' schools in England inspected last year downgraded, report says
Most of the outstanding schools in England inspected last year have been downgraded, according to a report from the schools watchdog.
Ofsted said 80% of outstanding schools it had revisited last year had been downgraded - 308 primary and secondary schools.Ofsted said it had prioritised schools that had gone the longest without inspection, when it had been deciding which schools to look at last year. She said it was important for parents to understand that most of the schools have remained "good", but said it was "concerning that quite a significant number have been marked as needing improvement".Asked later by MPs whether there had been too many outstanding ratings previously, Ms Spielman said: "The numbers had got very high, uncomfortably high." And the old system of inspections "perhaps looked more to process than substance".
"Far from demonstrating the value of Ofsted, this report shows that the inspectorate makes no material positive difference to schools," he said.
