Information for OFSTED
Whilst the website as a whole contains a great deal of information that we hope you find useful, in this section we present a number of documents central to OFSTED, who are responsible for school inspection.
Please see the links below for relevant documents, including the Department for Education school performance tables which contain information on the school’s exam results and other performance data.
Most recent Inspection
Vandyke Upper School was last inspected by Ofsted on 23rd and 24th January 2024. You can read the full Ofsted inspection report here.
ParentView
Parent View gives parents/carers the opportunity to tell OFSTED what they think about their child’s school. It can be accessed here.
Pupil Premium
‘Pupil Premium’ is a government initiative, designed to help support students whose families have faced economic difficulties in recent times or who are dealing with the challenge of being in care. You can find out more about how Vandyke Upper School uses this funding and the impact it has on our students here.
School Performance Data
Key stage 4 and 16 – 18 performance measures are published by the Secretary of State. You can find information on the latest measures here, and visit the school and college performance measures website here.
You can access the DfE school performance data for Vandyke Upper School here. This data includes our Progress 8 score, our Attainment 8 score, the percentage of pupils entering the English Baccalaureate, pupil destinations and attainment in English and Maths (the percentage of pupils achieving a grade 5 or above in GCSE English and Maths).
You can access the DfE 16 – 18 performance data for the Vandyke Upper School Sixth Form here.
Below you will find a breakdown of our Year 11 and Year 13 exam results for the past few years. Given the uneven impact of the pandemic on school and college performance data, the government has said you should not make direct comparisons between the performance data for one school or college and another, or to data from previous years.
