Association of Christian Teachers dismisses Ofsted report

Clive Ireson, chairman of the Association of Christian Teachers, claims there is nothing in the report that wasn't already known to the authorities.

Speaking on Premier's News Hour, he said: "The report doesn't tell us anything new. It just says that people are chatting and talking and calling out. and I think we all remember our school days that children chose what lessons to do that in, didn't they?"
