including those at the top of the scottish government, might well see what they perceive to be political advantage at certain points, but i think it's important to recognise that while that did occur at certain points, the day—to—day management of the pandemic preoccupied them as it preoccupied other ministers. so it's a matter of proportion and a matter of precision rather than a broad assault of the kind that the question invited me to agree with. mps have called for the system which gives schools in england a one or two—word judgement like "good" or "inadequate" to be scrapped. they say they have "widespread and deep concerns" about rating schools in that way. their inquiry was commissioned after the suicide of primary headteacher ruth perry. an inquest separately found an ofsted inspection had

contributed to her death. our education editor, branwenjeffreys, reports. the head teacher and deputy of a small primary in leeds, both leaving theirjobs because of ofsted. their school went from good to inadequate, and back to good again last year, an experience they told me broke their trust in the system. it was a moment in time that i will neverforget. it was a moment in time when i looked over at my deputy kate and i could see in her eyes, and i'm sure she could see in mine, that this was it, this is actually happening to us. it was a heart sinking moment. it was incredibly difficult, incredibly emotional for me, and incredibly lonely. the impact of having ourselves described as inadequate is... ..was traumatic. and is something that

will always be there. and it's one of the main things that has stayed with me from the process. injune last year inspectors visited. they didn't like the record—keeping on children's welfare. everything else was good, but the whole school was labelled inadequate. for staff and families at the school, the judgment was a shock. within three months the school was re—inspected, this time judged good overall. there was no evidence any child had been at risk. today, mps say this kind ofjudgment is wrong. they call for one or two—word judgment of schools to go. inadequate judgments on safeguarding only where a school is fundamentally failing to keep children safe. with less frequent, more detailed inspections for good schools, and more effort to capture parents' views.

overall, mps say school inspection needs to work for parents and for schools. what we heard is that trust has come to a low ebb in recent years. there is a need to rebuild trust with the profession. and i think following the tragic events at caversham primary and the death of ruth perry, and what we have seen from the coroner's inquiry there, i think there is a need to reassure the profession around the role of ofsted and that ofsted takes teacher and leader welfare very seriously. if you're a parent, there is a good reason that you should care about this. head teachers are leaving theirjobs early because of the pressure. not enough people want to step up to do the job. and we know that who leads a school makes a huge difference to the pupils. i think there needs to be a systematic rethink of the approach that ofsted take. the one—word judgments need to be not in existence.

that's a decision only ministers can make. labour say they would move to a report card for schools. some changes are already happening in school inspection, but it feels like bigger ones may be on the horizon. finally, a monkey is on the loose in the scottish highlands after escaping from a wildlife park. the japanese macaque found a way out of its enclosure at the highland wildlife park on sunday and into a nearby village. the royal zoological society of scotland, which runs the park, said it had assembled a team to bring the animal home. members of the public have been urged not to approach the monkey, but to contact the zoological society with any information they might have. we are covering the covid—i9 inquiry in scotland at the moment, that is

on iplayer. michael gove was there this morning. today they will look at the discharge of hospital patients to care homes without them being tested for the virus. if you want to catch up for the virus. if you want to catch up at dance and follow it, do have a look at our website and you can watch it on the iplayer. now, time for a look at the weather. hello again. the weather this week once again is going to be fairly changeable. today, what we've got is cold air coming in across the north behind this weather front, which is producing rain. but we are still in the milder conditions, represented by the yellows further south. now, that rain we are looking at is going to be heavy in parts. it's affecting parts of southern scotland,

northern england, wales, the north—west midlands and the southwest. the heaviest of which will be falling across the north of england. we could have some sleet and snow in the hills of the southern uplands and also the hills of the north of england. but to the north of that in the sunshine it's going to be colder than it was yesterday and not as windy. come south, we are looking at ia or indeed 15, way above average for the time of year, which in parts of the southeast is eight or nine. through this evening and overnight, the rain continues to push steadily eastwards. behind it, for england and for wales there will be a lot of cloud, patchy light rain and drizzle. but for scotland and northern ireland, under clear skies, it's going to be a cold night. we could see —5, that's our lowest temperature, with the risk of ice and some frost. we could actually also see some frost across parts of northern england, but as we come south, no issues with frost at all. so tomorrow, we are left with a bit of cloud across england and wales. bits of that will break up through the day to allow some brighter spells to come through. we've got a ridge of high pressure

building up across us, so a lot of dry weather. any showers we see in the north—west highlands could prove to be wintry on the hills and temperatures slipping down, 5 to about 9 degrees will be our maximum temperatures. then as we move on through the rest of wednesday, low pressure is crossing into the north of scotland, but look at all those isobars, and this weather front. it's going to be a very windy day in the northern half of the country on wednesday with gales, even severe gates, and this rain will be heavy as it pushes steadily southwards, with some hill snow in it. come further south again into england and to wales, and we are looking at a drier day, blustery winds, not as windy as in the north, and these are our temperatures. so they are starting to go up a little bit once again, a range of 7—11 north to south. beyond that, if we look at the outlook period, well, temperatures will be roundabout where they should be at this time of year. it will be wet and windy at times, especially so in scotland. further south, though, we are looking at something drier, but windy at times too.
