Ex-head of OFSTED says teachers should be prepared to lose lives to Covid. Haven’t they?
Sir Michael Wilshaw, former head of schools inspection organisation Ofsted who was once dubbed its “Dirty Harry”, has come out as the latest ex-government employee to have sawdust between his ears.
Watch this if you’ve got the stomach for it:
Unbelievable garbage from Wilshaw
Doctors "have lost their lives in some cases, we need a similar commitment from the teaching profession" – Wilshaw, ex head of Ofsted

Of course, teachers have already lost their lives. This fool doesn’t understand his subject – and that’s a terrible indictment against a school inspector.
And yes – as a commenter on the tweet stated – healthcare workers deserve better than to have their deaths described as some kind of worthy sacrifice.
But worst of all, this school inspector has belittled the commitment of teachers up and down the UK.
Teachers have gone to enormous lengths during the Covid-19 crisis.
Most particularly, they have done all the could to ensure the safety, both of school staff and pupils – which is more than has been managed by either Sir Wilshaw or the government he used to serve.
