Schools: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many schools (a) Broxtowe constituency, (b) Nottinghamshire, (c) England have been identified as stuck schools.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
In the ‘School accountability reform – school profiles improvement and intervention’ consultation, the department defined stuck school as a school that was graded requires improvement, or equivalent, at its most recent Ofsted inspection and was also graded below good at its previous inspection.
For this purpose, we have considered a sub-judgement of requires improvement for leadership and management and/or quality of education for a school inspected in the 2024/25 academic year as equivalent to a previous single headline grade of requires improvement.
Based on the latest published Ofsted inspection data, at the end of December 2024 there were:
- 0 stuck schools in Broxtowe.
- 12 stuck schools in Nottinghamshire.
- 664 stuck schools in England.
