Ofsted’s ASP (Analyse School Performance) website is an updated version of the RAISEonline. It gives you access to your school's detailed performance data.
Ofsted intended the visual displays to be quick to interpret, but it is actually a very detailed document and not necessarily straightforward and easy to interpret correctly.
The “National Averages” which are shown can be misleading. Sometimes conclusions based on comparisons between your school’s data and the “National Average” that appear immediately obvious can be quite false. For example, the “National Average” which disadvantaged pupils are compared against is not the National Disadvantaged Average, but the National non-Disadvantaged Average.
