Of these, one was a sixth form college, three were secondary schools, six were primary schools and one was a specialist school.
Between them, there were two ‘outstanding’ grades, seven ‘good’, one ‘requires improvement’ and one ‘inadequate’.
If a school requires improvement, it is put under special measures, whilst good schools are checked less frequently.
Take a look at the eleven schools below, including their classifications, highlights and areas that require improvement…
