A weighted national sample of teachers and leaders in state schools. Interviewers did not offer “Don't know”, so those few answers are left out. Support staff were not asked.

Same wording, same answers, so a school's result for this question is set beside the figure on this page.
Percentage who answered strongly agree or tend to agree
From 10 to 5,000; the slider runs to 500
Scale: 40% to 80%, 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

- Gap
- 5.8 points below England
The band is the 95% interval: with 48 answers, the school's true figure very likely lies between 45.9% and 72.6%, so a gap counts as clear only when England's figure is outside it.
England's figure comes from 10,808 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.
