Ofsted and School Performance Data

“Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. We inspect and regulate services that care for children and young people, and services providing education and skills for learners of all ages. Ofsted is a non-ministerial department.”

Parent View: Parent view gives you the chance to tell us what you think about your child’s school. The survey can be completed online at any time https://www.parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/

Ofsted Parent View gives you the chance to tell Ofsted what you think of your child’s school, including:

how happy your child is at the school
how the school manages bullying or challenging behaviour

If your child has special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), we will ask how well the school supports them.

The questionnaire can be completed at any time - you don’t have to wait until the school is being inspected.

We will use your responses to help us plan inspections.

The information you provide can:

inform discussions inspectors have with school leaders during an inspection
help Ofsted decide when to inspect a school

In addition to this, we also publish the overall summary of the responses to Ofsted Parent View. This information is anonymised.

What is school performance data?

School performance data is statistical information showing how well pupils in England have done in public examinations taken at key points in their educational journey. Data is published for children’s attainment in national curriculum tests, often known as SATs, which are sat at the end of primary school at age 10 or 11.
