School Financial Benchmarking

You can view your school or academy trust's financial data, see how it compares with others and use the information to establish relationships with other schools or multi-academy trusts.

We would recommend selecting PER PUPIL as the comparison as this will provide a like for like comparison regardless of school size.

Efficiency Metrics

Examine a school's spending in relation to progress or compare your school against higher progress schools.

OFSTED caution:

We know from national data that pupils at junior schools, on average, have higher attainment scores at the end of key stage 2 than pupils at all other primary schools. However, on average they also have lower progress scores, which may be for a variety of reasons. Inspectors should be aware of this and, as with any inspection, carefully consider a range of information and data including the progress of current pupils in all year groups.

It appears there is a consistent disproportionate negative effect on Chesswood Junior School progress data when comparing and contrasting performance.

Comparison with other Junior Schools is advised using this measure

Ofsted Parent View

Ofsted Parent View gives you the chance to tell Ofsted what you think of your child’s school, including: 

 - how happy your child is at the school

It also provides a summary of all responses, anonymised, after 10+ responses have been completed. The responses are grouped by academic year.
