Hvad betyder det: The overall absence rate measures the percentage of possible sessions (half-days) missed by pupils across the academic year, including both authorised and unauthorised absences.

An absence rate above 7% is typically considered high. Schools in areas of higher deprivation usually report higher absence rates, often linked to health inequalities, family circumstances, or transport challenges.

Hvad betyder det: The suspension rate shows the percentage of pupils who received at least one fixed-period suspension during the academic year. A single pupil suspended multiple times counts once.

This suspension rate is below average, which usually reflects either a strong pastoral support system or a school community with fewer behavioural challenges.

Hvad betyder det: The permanent exclusion rate shows the percentage of pupils permanently excluded from the school during the academic year. This is the most serious sanction a headteacher can apply.

Permanent exclusion is rare across most schools. Many schools report zero permanent exclusions in any given year.

Hvad betyder det: The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers employed at the school. Part-time teachers are counted proportionally (e.g. a teacher working 3 days counts as 0.6 FTE).

Teacher numbers typically reflect the size and funding of the school. A school with 12 FTE teachers is relatively small. Changes over time may indicate growth, budget pressures, or restructuring.

Hvad betyder det: The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) teaching assistants employed at the school, including higher-level teaching assistants (HLTAs).

Teaching assistant numbers vary widely between schools. The number of TAs usually depends on the school's SEN population, funding, and teaching model.

Hvad betyder det: The pupil-to-teacher ratio (PTR) divides the total number of pupils by the number of FTE teachers. It indicates how many pupils each teacher is responsible for on average, though actual class sizes may differ.

This pupil-to-teacher ratio is within the normal range for most schools. The national average typically sits between 18–22 for primaries.

📊 📊 Esh Winning Academy er rangeret 3,491st ud af 23,374 skoler nationalt

Hvad betyder det: The percentage of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals (FSM). FSM eligibility is widely used as a proxy indicator for socio-economic disadvantage.

An FSM rate above 30% is significantly above the national average and typically indicates a school serving a community with higher levels of deprivation.

Hvad betyder det: The percentage of pupils identified as having Special Educational Needs (SEN), including both SEN Support and those with Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans.

An SEN rate above 20% is higher than the national average and may indicate strong SEN identification practices or a school that attracts families seeking good SEN provision.

Hvad betyder det: The percentage of pupils receiving SEN Support — the first tier of SEN provision, where additional help is provided within the school without an EHC plan.

This level of SEN Support is above the national average. The proportion often reflects how the school identifies and categorises additional needs.

Hvad betyder det: The percentage of pupils with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan — the highest level of SEN support, involving a legally binding document specifying the provision required.

This EHC rate is within the normal range. Many mainstream schools have 1–3% of pupils with EHC plans.

Hvad betyder det: The percentage of pupils meeting the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths (RWM combined) at the end of Key Stage 2. This is the headline measure for primary school attainment.

This attainment level is broadly around the national average. The national benchmark typically sits between 55–65%.

Hvad betyder det: The KS2 Reading progress score measures how much progress pupils have made in reading between the end of KS1 and KS2, compared to pupils nationally with similar starting points. A score of 0 is average; positive means above average.

A negative progress score may indicate that pupils are making less progress than similar pupils nationally, though contextual factors should be considered.

Hvad betyder det: The KS2 Maths progress score measures how much progress pupils have made in maths between KS1 and KS2, compared to pupils nationally with similar starting points.

A maths progress score above 1.0 usually reflects strong mathematical teaching and a well-structured curriculum.
