How the new report cards work
Since November 2025 Ofsted grades each area of a school (achievement, teaching, behaviour, personal development, inclusion, leadership) on a five-point scale: exceptional, strong standard, expected standard, needs attention, urgent improvement. Safeguarding is met or not met. Across the 22 East Suffolk report cards so far, the grades given were: expected standard 105 times, needs attention 25 times, strong standard 22 times.
Schools inspected before then have a single grade (outstanding, good, requires improvement or inadequate), or from September 2024 a grade for each area without an overall one. Short “ungraded” visits check a school is still at its last grade.
Where the figures come from
Ofsted publishes the latest inspection of every state-funded school each month, under the Open Government Licence. We keep those at IP and NR postcodes and show here the ones in East Suffolk. Independent schools and childminders aren’t included. Each school links to its full report on the Ofsted website.
