Ofsted 

 

Ofsted is the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. They inspect and regulate services that care for children and young people, and services providing education and skills for learners of all ages.

 As of 9 September 2025, Ofsted confirmed changes to how schools are evaluated, including the introduction of new “report cards” and a new 5‑point grading scale (from November 2025) replacing the previous single‑word judgments. 

The new grades will be: Urgent Improvement, Needs Attention, Expected Standard, Strong Standard, and Exceptional

Under the new system, we’ll receive more granularity—i.e. strengths, areas for improvement, and narrative context across a number of evaluation areas (such as curriculum, inclusion, behaviour/attendance, leadership and Early Years).
