Free School Meals: Welwyn Hatfield
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many and what proportion of children in year three and above who are eligible for free school meals attend schools rated (a) Outstanding, (b) Good, (c) Requires Improvement and (d) Inadequate in Welwyn Hatfield constituency.
Answered by Stephen Morgan
Data on the number pupils eligible for free school meals broken down by a schools’ single headline grade is not held by the department. Ofsted has, as of September 2024, ceased providing headline grades as part of the move to a comprehensive school report card to provide greater information for parents and proportionate accountability for schools. Subject to the ongoing consultation report, cards will include reporting on inclusion.
Information on the total number and percentage of pupils eligible for free school meals at school level, including the constituency of the school, is published in an additional supporting file as part of the statistical release.
