Parents choose whether to answer Parent View, so it is not a random sample; treat differences of a few points with caution. “Don't know” is counted in the total, as in Ofsted's own figures.

Scale: 60% to 100%, zoomed in to where the figures fall. Positions are exact. Band: your school's 95% interval. Amber rule: England.
In line with England: the gap is within what chance would explain for 48 answers.

- England
- 85.1%
- Gap
- 6.1 points below England
The band is the 95% interval: with 48 answers, the school's true figure very likely lies between 65.6% and 88.1%, so a gap counts as clear only when England's figure is outside it.
England's figure comes from 110,629 answers, so its own margin of error is small beside a school's and the test leaves it out. Same test as the reports: a 95% Wilson interval for the school. England: Ofsted Parent View, 10 Nov 2025 to 6 Apr 2026, Open Government Licence v3.0.
