England's Association of School and College Leaders has joined the National Association of Head Teachers in calling for a pause to Ofsted graded inspections. ASCL said many leaders had lost confidence in the inspectorate and floated an informal strike ballot. Ofsted cited an independent survey saying reforms were on track, while nearly half of school leaders said staff wellbeing had been hit hard by inspections.
