Our friends at LIIA, working with D2I have produced more Ofsted analysis Ofsted inspections Power BI dashboard (external link hosted by LIIA).
The dashboard has five pages and covers ILACS and SEND inspections, with all manner of filters and visualisations available.
All the data on these pages have been produced by SESLIP analysis of information published at Ofsted’s report pages, which involves manual data transfer and is therefore subject to errors and omissions. If you spot anything that looks wrong, please contact Richard Tyndall 07880-787007
