iSchools: Get Information about Schools (DfE), open schools in England; Ofsted management information; governors from DfE governance records. The link between the trust and this charity is compiled from DfE governance records, not an official Charity Commission or Companies House link.6 open schools in 2 local authorities: 2 primary, 3 secondary and 1 sixth form or college. 4,170 pupils on roll. 2 of 2 with a one-word grade at their last graded inspection were Good or Outstanding (report-card and key-judgement inspections give no one-word grade and are not counted; a school whose latest inspection was ungraded is counted at its last graded inspection, which may be several years old and can be a predecessor school's grade where Ofsted records one, so the share mixes inspection years - each school page gives its inspection date).
