A senior Labour source also strongly criticised Ofsted over its apparent failure to take account of the posts by the Bristol Branch of the National Education Union (NEU) about the incident. In September, Bristol NEU publicly boasted that it prevented Egan, who is Jewish and whose partner is Israel, from visiting the school. The group said on Facebook: “MP Damian (sic) Egan’s planned school visit ... this Friday has been cancelled after concerns were raised by the NEU trade union staff group, parents and local constituents”. Despite not mentioning that Facebook post, Ofsted’s report said: “The specific decision to postpone the MP’s visit was not the subject of the inspection. Senior political leaders, including the prime minister and education secretary, have promised robust action shortly after news that Egan was banned from the school in his constituency.
