Message from Ofsted - IDSR release
Today we have re-released the inspection data summary report (IDSR) to allow schools access to the latest data. This release has been delayed from the autumn term. We have decided to release it now as we want to provide schools with access to the latest version, should you wish to review it. We understand the pressures schools are currently working under. There is no expectation for you to review this information at this time.
All performance-related data within the IDSR still relates to 2019.The Government announced that it will not publish any school or college level educational performance data based on tests, assessments or exams for 2020.
