OFSTED: How a school fakes their data. Part7

Following on from the sexual assault of the girl at School1, which the School failed to report to the police, the situation has since developed.

The police were called, independently of the School, and when they attend the School told the police that there were no CCTV images of the attack. Which is strange, because the school had already reviewed the CCTV and there was indeed images of the assault. When the police were informed of this (i.e. the school had lied about the CCTV) the police then asked for a copy the CCTV, but were refused, demanding the police obtain a warrant.

Section 19 and Section 20 of PACE allows the police to seize exhibits, but as they are invited onto the premises, its gets slightly awkward to enforce this law.

This school was given a near outstanding mark by OFSTED, but who would want their child to go to that school?

School1, is truly awful school, inside the M25, which allows abuse of children and assaults on staff, to go unchecked, all to ensure it gets a neraly outstanding marks from OFSTED.  However, School 1 now has stepped across a whole new threshold; failing to report sexual assault.

Recently a young girl was the victim of a a sexual assualt, at the school, by a pupil.

Did the school call the police?

Did the school preserve the scene?

Did the school take every precaution to ensure that a conviction could succeed?

No, No, and No.

They had a quick chat with the victim and offender and sent them both home.

After the school refused to call the police, and delayed medical action, after another student was stamped on in the head, is it a surprise that they feel to deal with sexual assults properly.

This school has near outstanding results for OFSTED, does your child go here? Would you let you child go here? What would it take to get this resolved the entire senior managment is involved in this, and complaints tend to result in losing your job.

OFSTED: How a school fakes their data. Part 2

Following on from the previous article, reporting on School1 which can only be described as the Faulty Towers of Schools (but without the humour), we continue to explore how a school, which is so appauling it allows children with head injuries to go untreated, is ranked almost as “Outsanding” by OFSTED, rather than being on special measures, or closed down as it should be.

If parents could be informed of the state of the school they would surely pull them out immediately. In Part 1 we reported on how a child, who had his skull stamped on was denied immediate access to medical treatment .

Exams  – In this article we examine how School1 deals with pupils in exams.

Exams are supposed to be a test of knowledge, conducted in “exam conditions”, i.e no talking, no sneaking books in, no copying, and certainly no leaving the exam for about an hour, unescorted, being given the opportunity to read up on the subect, and then returning to the exam. The last statement seems so obvious that is probably not covered in most exam introductions. But, in School1, it probably should be.

In the exams last year certain students just got up and walked out of the exam room. The invdulators warned the students that they could not return, at which point the students just told the invidulators to ‘f*** off’. After about an hour the student the returned to exam room, and despite objections by the invidulators, was allowed to continue with the exam. The invidulator objected to the student returning, but a senior teacher allowed the student to continue with exams.

It is all about making sure that data looks good for the government. What this means is that if your students go to the exam and they are not overtly cheating, then they are not on a even footing with those who do.

As all the students will eventually be competing in the same job market the solution seems that all students should overtly cheat, and no doubt the school would be happy for this.

The more cheats, the better the exam results, the beter the grades, the better their stastics.
