Value added & progress — as the school reports it

Schools measure value added in different ways (ALPS, DfE, CEM and others), so these figures are not comparable between schools. Shown as reported, not as a score.

What the inspection emphasises

How the inspection report divides its attention across themes, compared with the average school — a fairer read than raw word frequency, since every inspectorate leans on the same core vocabulary.

Compared with the average school, this inspection dwells more on Safeguarding and Leadership & Character, and notably less on Pastoral & Wellbeing and Careers & Futures.

Promoted on the school's site but not picked up in the inspection report. Inspections don't cover everything, so this isn't a criticism — just an unmatched claim.
