Head teachers to be consulted on strike action over new Ofsted inspections

Head teachers may consider strike action following a legal challenge lost against Ofsted's new "traffic light system" for school inspections. Despite concerns raised about the impact on mental health, the High Court dismissed the challenge, and Ofsted plans to implement the new framework in England this November. Head teachers' union NAHT will consult members on potential strikes, while Ofsted asserts the changes aim to benefit parents and ensure fairness for schools.
