27 of the 58 schools in Ofsted's file have an overall grade from a graded inspection between September 2019 and July 2024.
2 schools have a report card from the renewed framework (from November 2025), which gives no overall grade.
8 schools had a graded inspection from September 2024, when Ofsted stopped giving an overall grade.
