With ofsted looking at and regulating all of our schools, families can look at the statistics and see which schools are getting the top results.
One of the arguments for and against this practice are plentiful with one side saying ?it is binding the schools up with beurocratic red tape? the other stating ?the standards of schools is rising because of it, and letting the families to make an educated decision?.
Whatever your angle is, families are finding themselves in the situation that they can find out which schools are providing the best service in their vicinity. If your child has special needs, requiring for example support with dyslexia or attention deficit disorder the Ofsted reports allow you to see which schools locally might provide best for your family.
Having looked at the ofsted reports you might discover that the schools in your catchment area arent right for you. As an alternative you might consider sending your child to a boarding school where your child could have smaller class sizes and a higher grade of education, many boarding schools offering scholarships or bursaries.
I have discovered several great sites that give top information on finding schools relevant to you.
