The Secret Life of Teachers

2. The Ofsted Inspection

<p>Host Mehreen Baig welcomes a new group of teachers to her virtual staffroom to discuss how they really feel about Ofsted inspections. What is the purpose of these inspections and who are the people behind the Ofsted badges? Can the word that puts dread into the hearts of teachers across the country really claim to be an effective way of monitoring our nation's education system? And is it helpful for the inspectors be a presence in schools so soon after the big return to classrooms?</p>

<p>Step inside Mehreen Baig’s virtual staffroom to hear what the UK’s teachers really think. As the new term begins amid a global pandemic, we get the uncensored views of what it’s really like behind the school gates from the people who spend more time with our children than we do.</p>
