Statistics showing schools in each local authority that are now in each category (up to 31 August 2007) can be found on the Ofsted website at www.ofsted.gov.uk, in the “Publications and Research—Statistics” section. These are very large documents, and best viewed online.
The school lists on these pages are produced each term. The data changes daily and some of the schools that have been placed in categories this term are still going through the moderation process and so their categorisation has not yet been published. The schools lists and data for the autumn term 2007 will be published on the Ofsted website at the end of January 2008.
A copy of this letter has been sent to Jim Knight MP, Minister of State for Schools and Learners and will be placed in the library of both Houses.
