What do the Ofsted ratings shown for NE2 schools mean?
Of the 7 schools within 1.5km of the NE2 centre that we matched to an Ofsted record, 1 are rated Outstanding and 3 Good at their last graded inspection, and 3 have no current grade because Ofsted stopped giving single-word judgements in September 2024. Inspections can be years apart, so treat a rating as the last formal verdict rather than a description of the school today.
