School Categorisations

As most of you will know, Warwickshire’s School Improvement team carry out regular risk assessments of all schools and academies to identify vulnerabilities.

Headteachers and Chairs of Governors will shortly be receiving the categorisation for their school for this academic year. Where appropriate, copies will also be sent to the chair of academy trust boards. 

It is vital that we have the email address of the chair of governors so that this information can be sent to the correct person. If you want to check that we have the right details, please email us at governors@warwickshire.gov.uk

Schools are categorised using a thorough risk assessment process as well as being RAG (Red, Amber, Green) rated to indicate the progress they are making within their individual category. For further information please refer to the documents below:
