Review launched into sexual abuse in schools

An immediate review into sexual abuse in schools has been announced by the government, following thousands of allegations from students.

Ofsted will look at safeguarding policies in state and independent schools to ensure there are appropriate systems in place to allow pupils to report their concerns.

A new helpline to support potential victims of sexual harassment and abuse in educational settings is also being set up.

Ruth Perry's sister slams decision to keep one word rulings

The sister of the headteacher Ruth Perry, who took her own life following an Ofsted report, says it's "depressing" to see the Government has decided to keep one word judgements for school inspections. The government was asked by the Education Select Committee to scrap the single word assessment - such as "outstanding or inadequate" - but said today it's keeping the headline grade because it provides a "succinct" summary for parents and schools.
