Ofsted is a significant part of the problem with UK education.
Passing their inspections means you can jump through hoops; and because of the effort needed to jump through those hoops, student learning is not the top priority.
I couldn't agree more!

Education now in the UK is about hitting targets instead of educating young people about things that will benefit them throughout their working lives. What happened to employing teaching staff who are suitably qualified in the subject they teach? I am not specifically referring to HMF here, but the education system as a whole.

I am, however, pleased that the RAF is setting the example, even if that example is a modern one.
