Making UK school performance data actually readable
School performance data in England is rich but fragmented. The Department for Education publishes Key Stage 2 SATs, GCSE attainment, Ofsted outcomes, progress scores, admissions figures and demographics — each in its own table, each with its own jargon.
SchoolCompare brings it all into one place. Every school page shows performance against the national average, explains what the numbers mean, and lets you shortlist schools side by side. Built for parents, governors, journalists, and anyone who wants to understand a school without reading a 40-page inspection report.
