PARENTS across the country found out whether their children received a place at their preferred school yesterday (Friday).
Hampshire County Council processed more than 21,500 applications for children to start school in reception year and to move from infant to their first year of junior education (Year 3).
Just over 93 per cent (93.07 per cent) have been allocated a place at their first choice of school and of pupils transferring from infant school to junior school just under 98 per cent (97.82 per cent) obtained a place at their first choice.
As parents begin to buy uniforms and look forward to their little ones going to a new school, we thought it would be handy for parents to know how that school is rated by Ofsted.
Once inspected, the education watchdog grades schools under one of four rankings.
Grade one, or outstanding, is the highest score that can be achieved. These schools are exempt from routine inspections, unless they're nurseries, special schools or Pupil Referral Units (PRUs).
Grade 2, or good, receive a one-day short inspection every three years, or a full inspection if the school’s performance has changed dramatically.
Grade 3, or requires improvement, is awarded to schools that will require another full Ofsted inspection within two years in order to monitor their progress.
Lastly, schools can be awarded a grade four, which means they're defined as 'inadequate'. Schools graded as inadequate will receive regular Ofsted.
