Ofsted will no longer give you an 'overall effectiveness' grade
This can make it a bit trickier to communicate your results to your school community.
Starting from September 2024, you'll receive a judgement for each of the following areas:
- Quality of education
- Behaviour and attitudes
- Personal development
- Leadership and management
Where relevant, you'll also receive a judgement for:
- Early years provision
- Sixth-form provision
See paragraphs 225 and 226 of the School Inspection Handbook for this information.
