Amanda Spielman has called on the Secretary of State for Education Bridget Phillipson to drop proposed changes including forcing academics to teach the national curriculum.
Former head of Ofsted accuses Education Secretary of prioritizing unions' interests over children, ahead of a hearing on the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill. Critics claim the Bill reduces freedoms for academies, which unions oppose. The Education Department defends the bill as delivering better schools and teachers. MPs will also argue for criminalizing smacking.
