Single word Ofsted grades scrapped immediately?

The front page of the Metro tomorrow says that single word Ofsted grades will be scrapped immediately (reforming how Ofsted report to parents was in the Labour Manifesto so this is expected at some point).

However, two large teacher twitter accounts tweeted about the immediate abolition earlier today but both deleted their tweets, and the education press aren't running the story.

So why is the Metro running with it, and where is this rumour coming from?

As a teacher in a school which is due Ofsted, I bloody hope this is true. This would be massive for teacher workload and mental health.

I think the pressure will only stop when the Government stops publishing reports for the general public to read.
Parents don't need to see them. They should be for the regulators only.

How would we like our yearly appraisals to be published for all to see?

Deregulation is going to happen for the sake of growth, not just in education.
