Boston accuses Balls of misleading MPs on Sats
Ken Boston, chief executive of the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) until his resignation last year, told MPs that ministers could have prevented the whole fiasco if they had taken his advice three years previously to modernise the Sats marking system.
Addressing the Commons education select committee, Boston made three accusations against the government and its handling of the crisis during which the marking of 1.2m test papers collapsed, thousands of tests were lost and thousands more severely delayed.
