Test and exam results

iWhat the DfE publishes at school level differs by type of school. The Ofsted judgements and pupil numbers below are published for most schools.

The DfE does not publish key stage results for most special schools in the same way as for mainstream schools, because pupils work at very different levels.

Ofsted management information, as at 30 September 2026, via WhatSchool: Ofsted may have published a newer report since. Since September 2024 Ofsted no longer gives a single overall grade at new inspections, so a one-word grade, where shown, belongs to the inspection date beside it. Ungraded inspections give no grade and are dated by month only. Inspections from September 2024 to November 2025 grade key judgements; report cards (from November 2025) grade evaluation areas.
