Important information

The IDSR summarises and analyses the available data about a school. It is also designed to align with our school inspection handbook, to inform inspectors’ conversations with school leaders. It is not intended to be an exhaustive profile of a school or to provide any judgement or assessment of the school.

The IDSR can contain sensitive information about schools and colleges. It is your responsibility to make sure you store and share the IDSR securely. Please see our guidance (linked to below) for our IDSR conditions of use and storage statement.

Data is presented in the IDSR based on the URN to which it is assigned. Where a school’s URN has changed within the timeframes represented in the IDSR, data will be displayed in different reports.

Online guidance can be found here.

Guidance

The chart shows school level information for 2022, 2023, and 2024. The information is based on the January census returns for those years, as supplied by the Department for Education.

If the text states ‘Well above average’ and the box is shaded blue, this means the figure is in the highest 20% compared to all schools. If the text states ‘Well below average’ and the box is shaded orange, this means that the figure is in the lowest 20% compared to all schools. If the text states ‘Above average’ this means the figure puts the school in the 21%-40% of schools category. If it states ‘Below average’, the figure puts the school in the 61%-80% of schools category.

Average in this chart refers to median.

Except for the school location deprivation measure, schools are compared with other schools in the same phase: primary (including middle deemed primary) or secondary (including middle deemed secondary and all throughs). Special schools are compared against the national distribution for secondary schools.

FSM6 in this chart refers to the percentage of pupils in receipt of FSM at the time of the January census; these pupils are those who are or have been eligible for FSM and have claimed them some time in the last 6 years.

Stability is a measure of the percentage of students who were admitted to the school at the standard time of admission. The stability percentage is calculated by dividing the number of pupils who meet the stability criteria by the number of all eligible pupils (pupils in Years 1 to 11 with a single or main dual registration at the school at the time of the January school census).

Information regarding the level of deprivation in the local area in which the school resides, together with an aggregated pupil-derived deprivation indicator is provided. Each deprivation indicator is based on the English indices of deprivation from 2019.

You can read further information about the data used for the local area deprivation. For deprivation measures, ‘Above average’ means “more deprived” and ‘Below average’ means “less deprived”.

Year 13 82 No data 62

Guidance
The year group characteristics table shows information about pupil characteristics for each year group.

The table presents data for pupils who were recorded as part of the January 2024 school census. As such, the data presented against each year group is about the cohort that was in that year group last academic year. For example, the data in the year 7 column is about the cohort who were in year 7 in the 2023/24 academic year, not the cohort who are in year 7 in the current (2024/25) academic year.

The measures included in the table are:
  • the number of pupils on roll
  • the percentage of pupils in receipt of FSM at the time of the October census; these pupils are those who are or have been eligible for FSM and have claimed them some time in the last 6 years (available for year groups from Reception to year 11 inclusive; FSM data is not collected for sixth forms)
  • the percentage of pupils whose first language is not English or is believed to be other than English

No highlighting is applied to this table, figures are presented purely for information.

There is additional guidance about this section.

Guidance
The prior attainment table shows how the school’s pupils performed at key stage 2 in relation to the rest of their year group nationally.

The table presents data for pupils who were recorded as part of the January 2024 school census. As such, the data presented against each year group is about the cohort that was in that year group last academic year. For example, the data in the year 7 column is about the cohort who were in year 7 in the 2023/24 academic year, not the cohort who are in year 7 in the current (2024/25) academic year.

The data content of the table focuses on the performance of these secondary-age pupils in their key stage 2 assessments:
  • the cohorts who were in Years 7, 8, and 11 in 2023/24 sat assessments when they were in key stage 2. The data for these year groups is based on the proportion of the school cohort who achieved the expected standard at key stage 2.
  • the cohorts who were in Years 9 and 10 in 2023/24 did not sit assessments when they were in key stage 2 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, there is no prior attainment data available.

Where the text states ‘Above national’ and the box is shaded blue, this indicates that the proportion achieving the expected standard was at least 1 standard deviation above the national. Where the text states ‘Below national’ and the box is shaded orange, this indicates that the figure was at least 1 standard deviation below the national.

Small cohorts refer to those that are fewer than 11 or were too small to have a valid significance output.

The source data for this table is the Department for Education January 2024 census.

Guidance

The tables display the number of pupils in the school with SEN and what the primary need category is. Separate tables for pupils with SEN support and those with an EHC plan are presented if the school has any pupils within these categories.

No highlighting is applied to this table, figures are presented purely for information.

The text above the tables displays if the school has any resourced provision. This could be a SEN unit, resourced provision or both. The capacity represents the capacity of the provision displayed. The type of SEN provision will list, where applicable, the type of SEN provided for. This section also displays how many pupils with SEN have received FSM at any time during the last 6 years and/or are children looked after (CLA) (in the care of the local authority for a day or more or who have been adopted from care).

The Department for Education January 2024 census provides data for this table.

The trust

As of 1 March 2025:

  • this school is part of a Trust which contains 13 primary schools, 2 secondary schools, no special schools, no alternative providers and no pupil referral units.
  • the latest inspection outcome for this school is: graded, not in a category of concern.
  • the MAT grade profile was:

Schools last inspected prior to September 2024

  • outstanding graded - 0
  • good graded - 5
  • requires improvement graded - 0
  • inadequate graded - 1
  • ungraded, school remains good - 2

Schools inspected from September 2024 onwards

  • graded, not in a category of concern - 3
  • graded, serious weaknesses - 0
  • graded, special measures - 0
  • ungraded, improved significantly - 0
  • ungraded, standards maintained - 0
  • ungraded, some aspects not as strong - 0

Schools not yet inspected

  • not yet received graded or ungraded inspection - 4
Guidance
The source data for this section is Ofsted inspection outcome data and the Department for Education’s Get Information about Schools (GIAS) service as at the month of the release.

It provides the multi-academy trust (MAT) to which the school belongs, the school’s latest inspection outcome and the number of schools, by phase, in the trust. All-through schools are counted as secondary schools. Colleges are not counted.

It also provides the grade profile of the schools within the MAT, using the latest inspection outcome each school has received under its current URN. Schools inspected in the academic year 2024/25 will not receive an overall effectiveness grade. As such, the grade profile is split into 2 sections:
  • schools last inspected before September 2024
  • schools inspected from September 2024 onwards

Each school’s latest inspection outcome, whether relating to a graded or ungraded inspection, will be used. If a school was last inspected under a different URN before it joined the MAT, the school will be counted in the ‘not yet received graded or ungraded inspection’ group until it is inspected as part of the MAT. However, if a school was last inspected before it joined the MAT but still possesses the same URN as it had on inspection, the outcome from that inspection will be counted in the grade profile.

Staffing

  • The proportion of education support staff relative to teaching staff was in the lowest 20% in 2023.
  • There is nothing to highlight for per pupil spending on staff related areas compared to similar schools in 2022/23.
  • The percentage of teachers with at least one period of sickness absence was significantly below national in: 2021/22, 2020/21.
  • 10 days on average were lost to teacher sickness absence in 2022/23. This was in the highest 20% nationally.
  • At the time of the November 2023 census, there were 3 full-time vacant teacher posts in the school.
  • There is nothing to highlight for staff turnover in 2022, 2021 or 2020.
Guidance

This section presents information on several areas relating to staffing.

Sickness absence data for 2020/21 was collected in the November 2022 census and was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

It is not possible to draw accurate comparisons with previous time periods due to factors including partially limited school openings, delivery of education via virtual means, and potential differences in the recording of sickness absence. The figures relate to sickness absence only and do not include non-attendance due to, for example, isolation and shielding.

Information relating to school spending is sourced from the Education and Skills Funding Agency’s 2022/23 data. All other information is sourced from the Department for Education’s November 2023 and earlier school workforce censuses.

Guidance

School-level absence data is based on 2 terms for 2023/24, and 3 terms for 2022/23 and 2021/22. The chart shows when the school percentage for absence or persistent absentees was in the highest or lowest 20% for ‘all schools’ or for ‘schools with a similar level of deprivation’. For the ‘all schools’ comparison, schools are compared with other schools in the same phase: primary (including middle deemed primary) or secondary (including middle deemed secondary and all throughs). Special schools are compared against the national distribution for secondary schools. For the ‘schools with a similar level of deprivation’ comparison, schools are compared with other schools in the same phase of education and with a similar level of deprivation (in the same IDACI quintile based on deprivation of the pupils in the school cohort).

Comparison data is only shown when the school is in the highest or lowest 20%.

The information is based on Department for Education pupil level absence data collected via the school census.

Local authority-level absence data is based on the previous academic year and the current academic year up to and including the most recent week about which we hold data, which is also displayed separately. The chart shows when the local authority percentage for absence was in the highest or lowest 20% for all local authorities.

Comparison data is only shown when the local authority is in the highest or lowest 20%. Special schools are compared with the national value for secondary schools.

The information is based on pupil level daily attendance data submitted by schools to the Department for Education.

Guidance

Suspensions were previously referred to as fixed term exclusions.

The suspensions and permanent exclusions data is one year behind and therefore may not relate to the same cohort as other IDSR data.

The whole school measure includes all year groups in the school.

The chart shows when the school percentage of pupils with 1 or more suspensions or 2 or more suspensions was in the highest 20% for ‘all schools’ or for ‘schools with a similar level of deprivation’. For the ‘all schools’ comparison, schools are compared with other schools in the same phase: primary (including middle deemed primary) or secondary (including middle deemed secondary and all throughs). Special schools are compared against the national distribution for secondary schools. For the ‘schools with a similar level of deprivation’ comparison, schools are compared with other schools in the same phase of education and with a similar level of deprivation (in the same IDACI quintile based on deprivation of the pupils in the school cohort). The similar deprivation comparison will not be visible for primary schools – we do not produce the comparison due to very low suspension rates.

The comparison data is only shown when the school is in the highest 20%.

There is no cohort threshold applied to the reasons table in this section. Up to 3 reasons can be recorded for each suspension or permanent exclusion. As such, the total number of reasons may exceed the total number of suspensions or permanent exclusions. The reasons table will only appear if there have been suspensions or permanent exclusions in the latest year.

The Department for Education provides the source data for this section.

There is additional guidance about this section.

Guidance

Due to the low number of suspensions and permanent exclusions nationally in sixth forms, it has not been possible to make the same comparisons as with the whole schools measure (highest 20%). Instead, the IDSR treats suspensions as it does exclusions and displays the school number and national average. For this same reason, the IDSR does not look at the school percentage for pupils with 2 or more suspensions for sixth forms or make comparisons to schools with similar levels of deprivation as with the whole school section.

16 to 18 in this section relates to Years 12, 13 and 14 where applicable.

There is no cohort threshold applied in this section.

Up to 3 reasons can be recorded for each suspension or permanent exclusion. As such, the total number of reasons may exceed the total number of suspensions or permanent exclusions. The reasons sections will only appear if there have been suspensions or permanent exclusions in the latest year.

The Department for Education supplies the source data for this section.

Guidance

This section may contain up to two parts - the first is a bullet point about EBacc entry at this school, the second is a table that provides details about the subjects entered by pupils at this school.

The EBacc entry bullet point describes the EBacc entry rate for the school in 2024. It is shown for every school where there were at least 11 pupils reaching the end of key stage 4 in 2024. It may be followed by another sentence that details the subject cluster with the lowest rate of EBacc entry (if the entry rate for that cluster was below 75%).

The table about subjects entered shows all the subjects entered by pupils at this school in 2024, 2023 and 2022 and the number of entries for each. It also highlights if the school had a high or low average point score in a particular subject compared to other schools, where applicable.

The entries figure represents the number of exam entries in a given subject rather than the number of pupils entered. Therefore, if a pupil was entered for the same qualification in two different exam seasons, this would count as 2 entries. Discounting has not been applied to this table and this includes entries that may not have counted in performance measures.

For technical awards, any entries for a level 1 qualification may be grouped with those for the level 2 qualification in the same subject. Such figures will be represented as a single row where the ‘Qualification type’ is listed as ‘Level 1/2.’

A shaded box and corresponding text will appear if the average point score for pupils in a particular subject is in the highest or lowest 20% of all schools and only if entry levels were at or above national entries.

The Department for Education supplies the source pupil level data for this section.

There is additional guidance which provides the criteria used to determine the sentences and links to further detail for the measures.

Guidance

Arrows indicate whether the school, when compared to the national, has changed. A dark shaded upward arrow indicates that the school difference from national has improved from the comparator year (difference of at least 2 standard deviations).

A lighter shade upward arrow indicates the school difference from national has improved slightly from the comparator year (difference of at least 1 standard deviation). Arrows pointing downwards indicate a worsening in the difference to national, with the same shading rules.

A horizontal line means the school is similar to the comparator year (difference was less than 1 standard deviation OR there were fewer than 11 pupils in either of the years).

Cohort/entries shows the number of pupils included in the measure. Measures such as progress scores include only pupils with prior attainment. Some key stage 4 measures may only include the pupils entered for that subject area.

The Department for Education supplies the source pupil level data for this section.

Guidance

The data for the latest year relates to the pupils that sustained destinations in 2022/23. These are pupils that reached the end of key stage 4 in 2021/22. The column header displays the year of completed education as the latest year.

For a destination to count, pupils must sustain participation for a 6-month period.

Blue boxes will indicate if a figure was, statistically, significantly above the national average. Orange boxes will indicate when a figure was, statistically, significantly below the national average.

If data has been suppressed due to small cohorts, ‘small cohort’ will be shown in the box. Cohort suppression in this table follows the rules used by the Department for Education.

Disadvantaged pupils are those who were eligible for FSM at any time during the last 6 years and/or looked after children (in the care of the local authority for a day or more or who have been adopted from care).

The Department for Education supplies the source data for this section.

There is additional guidance which provides further detail for this section.

  • The proportion of students not taking any L3 or L2 DfE approved qualifications (2%) was in the lowest 20% in 2024, as well as in 2023.
Guidance

This table lists the proportion of students undertaking each type of qualification. No box highlighting is applied to this table.

Students may be working towards more than one type of qualification and so may be counted more than once. Students taking courses that are not full qualifications are not included. Students taking academic qualifications other than A levels are not included in the table under individual qualification types but are included in the cohort information. Therefore, the percentages in each column may not add up to 100%.

The number and proportion of students who are not taking any approved level 3 or level 2 Department for Education qualification is also included in the form of a sentence below the table.

The Department for Education provides the source data for this section.

There is additional guidance which provides the criteria used to determine the sentences.

Retention on main study programmes

2019 2022 2023

Tech level No students No students No students
Tech certificate No students No students No students


Guidance

This table provides data on the extent to which a provider retains students to the end of the main learning aim of their study programme. The measure used in this section is ‘retained and assessed’.

Highlighting is applied on this table. Blue boxes are displayed when all students were retained and the cohort was greater than 10. Orange boxes are displayed when the value is in the bottom decile when compared to all providers and the cohort is greater than 10.

Students are counted in the retained and assessed measure if they are retained to the end of their course and are assessed. The assessment may not necessarily be in the same subject or type of qualification they were aiming for when their studies began. However, the assessment must be at the same level and at least the same size as the main aim. For example, a student with an original main aim of tech level at size 1 would be considered as retained and assessed with an applied general exam result of at least size 1.

From 2019, only technical certificates have been recognised as level 2 vocational qualifications in the 16 to 18 performance tables. In 2018, the Department for Education reported a broader range of qualifications. The Department for Education’s 16 to 18 qualifications guidance contains the full list of qualifications that count in the performance tables each year from 2018 to 2026.

A student’s study programme is defined based on their main aim. The Department for Education’s 16 to 18 accountability measures technical guide provides further information on how this is defined.

The Department for Education provides the source data for this section.

There is additional guidance which contains further detail and links to additional Department for Education resources.

Guidance

This section shows all the subjects entered by students at this school in 2024, 2023 and 2022 and the number of entries for each.

The entries figure represents the number of exam entries in a given subject rather than the number of pupils entered. Therefore, if a student was entered for the same qualification in two different exam seasons, this would count as 2 entries. Discounting has not been applied to this table and this includes entries that may not have counted in performance measures.

The Department for Education supplies the source student-level data for this section.

There is additional guidance which provides further detail for the measures.

Guidance

This table displays the proportion of pupils that continued to complete specified destinations. This data is publicly available and comes from the Department for Education’s destinations collection. The column header displays the year of completed education as the latest year.

The data for the latest year relates to the pupils that sustained destinations in 2022/23. These are students that reached the end of 16 to 18 study in 2021/22.

Blue boxes will indicate if a figure was, statistically, significantly above the national average. Orange boxes will indicate when a figure was, statistically, significantly below the national average.

If data has been suppressed due to small cohorts, ‘small cohort’ will be shown in the box. Cohort suppression in this table follows the rules used by the Department for Education.

Disadvantaged pupils are those who were eligible for FSM at any time during the last 6 years and/or looked after children (in the care of the local authority for a day or more or who have been adopted from care).

Guidance
This section may contain up to four tables of measures, depending on the school phase. The ‘Primary’, ‘Secondary’ and/or ‘16 to 18’ tables display the performance of pupil groups at the corresponding phase of education. For ‘Primary’ and ‘Secondary’, measures are generated for the pupil groups FSM and/or children looked after (CLA) and low/middle/high prior attainers. For ‘16 to 18’, value added measures are generated for the GCSE grades 0-3/4-6/7-9 prior attainment bands. The ‘Absence’ table displays if the school’s absence percentage is in the highest or lowest 20% of pupils eligible for FSM, pupils with SEN and pupils with English as an additional language. Only the latest year’s data is assessed in this section. Cohorts of less than 11 are not included in this section.

For the tables of performance measures, shaded boxes and text will appear for a pupil group measure if both the measure is significantly different to the national comparator for that pupil group and the national comparison for a pupil group differs to the national comparison for the whole school. For example, if Progress 8 for all pupils was not significantly different to national but Progress 8 for low prior attainers was significantly above national, the low attainers group will be highlighted. If Progress 8 for all pupils and Progress 8 for low prior attainers were both significantly above national, then the group will not be highlighted.

The text and shading are based on the significance of the comparison to national for the pupil group. For these comparisons, the pupil group measure is compared with the corresponding national value for that pupil group, with the exception of the FSM and/or CLA pupil group which is compared with the national for pupils who are not FSM and/or CLA.

For the ‘Primary’ table, please also note the following points:
  • We do not currently present key stage 2 prior attainment groups. Once the first cohort of pupils assessed using the reception baseline reach year 6, these will be reintroduced.
  • Pupil groups measures are based on the expected standard and do not appear for the high standard.
  • Pupil groups measures for phonics and multiplication tables checks (MTC) do not appear in this section.

For the ‘Absence’ table, the shading and text generally follow the same rules as for the tables of performance measures, except that for absence the text and shading are based on quintile (highest/lowest 20%). For example, if the school percentage of persistent absentees for all pupils was not in the highest 20% nationally, but the school percentage of persistent absentees for pupils with SEN was in the highest 20% nationally, the SEN pupil group will be highlighted. If the school percentage of persistent absentees for all pupils and pupils with SEN were both in the highest 20% nationally, then the group will not be highlighted.

Tables are not produced for suspensions and permanent exclusions measures.

There is additional guidance which provides further detail for this section.
