Official statistics release: Maintained school inspections and outcomes: 2012
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This official statistics release reports on inspections and outcomes of maintained schools inspections that occurred under this new framework, between 1 January 2012 and 31 March 2012.These statistics are based on provisional data and are subject to change.This release also includes the most recent inspection outcomes for all maintained schools that have been inspected at 31 March 2012.This provides a picture of the 'state of the nation's schools' as indicated by inspection outcomes.Many schools have been approved by the Secretary of State to convert to become an academy school.This involves the predecessor school closing and reopening as a new legal entity, in some cases merging with other schools or otherwise changing in the process.Very few of these new academies have been inspected by Ofsted subsequent to their conversion.For the purposes of these aggregated statistics, where an academy converter school has not been inspected, the inspection judgements of the predecessor school are included.However, it is important to recognise that the academy and the predecessor school are different legal entities.The term 'maintained schools' is used generically to cover all maintained schools, state-funded independent schools (including academies) and certain non-maintained special schools in England that Ofsted is required to inspect under section 5: the full list of schools required to be inspected is found in the Glossary.Ofsted is reviewing the effectiveness of this and other official statistics releases to ensure they are fit for purpose and meeting user needs.Part of the purpose of the review, given the challenging financial climate, is to identify areas where publications might be reduced without adversely affecting users.We are very keen to gather feedback on how the releases are used, what is most useful and whether there are things we could stop doing without an adverse impact.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
