Track: South West's middle 80% (10th to 90th percentile); L = South West median; S = Somerset median, shown when 10 or more of its schools have a figure; the dot is this school.

South West state schools in Close Knit with a published figure, same phase (primary or secondary) and year; the borough median only when 10 or more of its schools have one. 10th, 50th and 90th percentiles with linear interpolation (PostgreSQL percentile_cont).

Colour only where lower or higher is clearly better (absence: lower): blue = better than the South West median, red = in South West's worst 10%.

Getting in

Got in = first-choice families offered a place on national offer day ÷ families who put the school first. Putting a school first gives no priority: siblings and distance decide.

First-choice applications not offered a place on national offer day: 100 × (1 − first-preference offers ÷ first preferences). Applications count preferences, not children; places can still be offered from waiting lists after offer day.

Source: DfE, Primary and secondary school applications and offers.

Last distance offered: the straight line from the school to the furthest child offered a place under the distance rule. Not a catchment: it changes every year.

Each dot opens its Ofsted report. Report cards and 2024–25 inspections have no overall grade: the badge takes the lowest area's colour.

Inspection judgements graded Outstanding or Good, and Requires improvement or Inadequate, out of the judgements graded (the overall grade and aggregated judgements are not counted). Counted from Ofsted's grades, never scored from the report text.
