They buy books on 100 ways to make their lesson look outstanding, and trade chinese whispers about what Ofsted want to see. So teachers spend their time on appearances. This makes teachers ensure teaching looks better, even if that doesn’t make it achieve more. QoT judges teaching by how it looks, not by what it achieves. And before you know it, terrified leaders in many schools are imposing dreadful policies on their staff because it’s easier to put on a show for an inspector than it is to improve results. Why not make all staff mark all books every night in four different colours of pen? It might not improve feedback, but it’s a good way to demonstrate QoT. So why not insist that all staff plan all lessons in detail and in writing on a school proforma? It might not improve learning, but it’s good way to demonstrate QoT. School leaders who face a grilling from external inspectors, be they Ofsted or otherwise, will find it much easier to create an illusion of performance and score well on QoT than to create actual performance and score well on Achievement. And it is easier to force teachers to work ever harder than it is to make their effort more productive. It is easier to produce an evidence trail than it is to produce an impact. It is easier to tick QoT tick boxes than it is to actually improve results.
