We need a kinder way of inspecting social workers and our services

2023-12-15

This week, our hosts touch on the outcome of the inquest into the death of headteacher Ruth Perry, which concluded last week. After explaining how investigations of services work in adults and children's social work, Vince and Tilly explore the coroner's findings through a social work lens, discuss what - if any - changes they expect to see to Ofsted's approach in inspections, both with schools and local authorities, and ask if there are wider lessons to be learned.
