What do the Ofsted ratings shown for YO1 schools mean?
Of the 11 schools within 1.5km of the YO1 centre that we matched to an Ofsted record, 0 are rated Outstanding and 7 Good at their last graded inspection, and 4 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.
