Pupils across Wigan have been in the classroom this week, either returning after the summer holiday or starting lessons at a new school.
A number of schools in the borough have now been inspected by Ofsted using its new report cards and grades, which were introduced last year.
Previously they received one overall judgement, such as “good”, “outstanding” or “requires improvement”.
But they are now being graded across a variety of areas, including attendance and behaviour, achievement and inclusion, using a colour-coded five-point scale.
These grades are “urgent improvement”, “needs attention”, “expected standard”, “strong standard” and the new highest grade of “exceptional”.
