Ofsted: A Culture of Fear and Anxiety
3 May 2024
This report sets out the findings of an online survey of ¹ÏÉñÍø members working in the further education sectors this includes further education colleges, adult and community education as well as prison education.
The report documents the experiences and perspectives of ¹ÏÉñÍø members in relation to Ofsted and mock-Ofsted inspection.
¹ÏÉñÍø members have grave concerns about the stress, anxiety and adverse impact on health and wellbeing they experience as a result of Ofsted inspections and preparation for an Ofsted inspection. Our findings show that Ofsted inspections create a major health and safety risk for staff who experience significant levels of stress and anxiety both during and in the lead up to inspections.
