SCHOOL leaders’ union NAHT has urged Ofsted to temporarily carry out ungraded inspections.

Today’s recommendation followed the inquest into the death of head teacher Ruth Perry, who killed herself after Ofsted downgraded her Caversham Primary School to its lowest rating.

In December, a coroner ruled that the inspection “likely contributed” to Perry’s death.
