Two-thirds of students think TEF based on Ofsted-style inspection

Your previous article said it best, "The Hepi/Advance HE Student Academic Survey finds undergraduates at gold-rated institutions do not rank teaching staff highly" The TEF is an invalid measure. It does not measure quality teaching. https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/students-gold-providers-see-good-value-not-good-teaching

Having taught in FE (subject to Ofsted) before slithering into academia, I don't think either are good measures of quality learning and teaching! Using 'student satisfaction' as an indicator is daft - some of the best teachers are unpopular with many students (especially the less able or lazier ones) because they challenge and stretch them well beyond their comfort zones, yet those who put in the effort learn extremely well.
