Children across Bristol have received offers for primary schools today (April 16) with the majority securing one of their top choices. This marks an important step for those wanting to start primary education in September of this year.

Inspections from Ofsted can help narrow down the field when it comes to selecting the right school for each child. Schools are assessed on a number of categories to earn an overall grading.

The categories are the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management and early years provision. Schools can be graded as inadequate, requires improvement, good or outstanding.
