Nah. They probably had inspectors though. I remember the inspectors during the 60's. Think things started falling to bits when they decided that primary school children should learn a little on every subject rather than concentrating on the 3 r's
I do have a rather good poem in my head about ofsted though. Don't know who wrote it and it's a bit risqué
Not sure whether to type it out here. Ummm.
Oh...going to. I'll delete it if there's any complaints.
There's only one F'in Ofsted,
But that's quite enough for us.
If there's no F'in lesson plan,
There's one hell of an F'in fuss.
There's an F'in form to fill in,
For everything that's said.
There'll be no F'in future,
If that fails to please the Head.
Sounds like one F'in photocopier
Has died from overheat.
There's no F'in chance at all
To keep the worksheets neat.
There's no F'in inspector
When your lesson is first rate,
And there's no F'in good excuse
To explain why you were late.
There should be an F'in handbook
For everything to do.
Tell the R.I. you left it
For light reading in the loo.
There's no F'in parking space,
For half the F'in staff,
"RESERVED" for F'in Ofsted
Who have the last F'in larf.
There's no F'in spiritual,
Or cultural education.
No F'in equality,
But much in differentiation.
There's only one F'in Ofsted,
With its "Education Speak".
Thank God there's an F'in Friday
To end the F'in week.
