Having mentioned Angela Westington HMI agreed to speak at the Reading Reform Foundation conference (March 2015), here is a link to some video footage from the conference:

Must watch:

It includes a short but very challenging talk by Anne Glennie about the scenario in Scotland re (poor) adult aspirations for literacy and an excellent talk by headteacher, Sam Bailey, about all the ingredients that enable a massive and quick leap in standards in two primary schools in England.
