Ofsted and Performance
Please find below our most recent Ofsted reports and relevant information from the Department for Education Performance Tables.
INFORMATION AND INSPECTIONS
Ofsted make judgements on four areas:
- the effectiveness of leadership and management
- the quality of teaching, learning and assessment
- personal development, behaviour and welfare
- outcomes for pupils
Schools are given an overall grade from 1 to 4:
- grade 1 – outstanding
- grade 2 – good
- grade 3 – requires improvement
- grade 4 – inadequate
The grade a school receives determines how frequently the inspectors visit. Good schools normally receive a short inspection every three years.
Ofsted have written a useful guide for parents and carers:
