Parents and guardians across the UK will have already applied for their child's place in primary and secondary school for September 2024, although a number of city schools have received fresh Ofsted ratings this year.
Parents of three and four-year-olds are also soon to find out what primary school has offered their child a place for the next academic year. National Offer Day for primary schools on Tuesday, April 16.
Schools across the country are regularly inspected by the education watchdog and are graded on a four-point scale. Although they aren’t inspected every year.
‘Outstanding’ is the top rating a school can receive, ‘good’ is second, ‘requires improvement’ the third and ‘inadequate’ is the worst.
