None of these carries an Ofsted grade, and that is not a bad sign. Fee-paying schools are inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, not Ofsted, and the ISI publishes no open data feed. A missing rating here means we cannot see one, never that the school was judged poorly. Fees are not published as open data either, so they are not shown.

Checking a specific address

Distance from a school is measured to a front door, not to a district's centre. Put a postcode in and the report works out the real distance to each school, alongside flood risk, sold prices, crime and the rest.
