Sir Chris Woodhead Dies
June 23, 2015
England’s former chief inspector of schools Sir Chris Woodhead has died, friends tell Press Association.
Mr Woodhead was head of England’s education watchdog Ofsted between 1994 and 2000. He had been diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2006.
Mr Woodhead’s criticisms of teaching standards had made him a controversial figure.
But the Ofsted chief had argued: “I am paid to challenge mediocrity, failure and complacency.”
