Former Ofsted head Amanda Spielman faces criticism as she's set to receive a peerage.

Amanda Spielman, former Ofsted chief inspector, is set to receive a peerage, despite controversy over her role during a headteacher's suicide. Critics argue this rewards her for defending an "inhumane system," but Conservative sources praise her expertise and say she will be a valuable addition to the House of Lords. Her nomination is linked to potential changes in academy staff pay and curriculum.
