National Offer Day 2022: These are the schools in Sunderland with outstanding Ofsted ratings

Today (Tuesday, April 19) parents across Wearside have discovered which primary school their children will attend in the next academic year.

A letter and email sent to parents today will include a set of instructions for the next steps as well as a deadline for accepting or declining the offer.

Schools up and down the country are inspected to assess their performance on the key areas of effectiveness of leadership and management, quality of teaching, learning and assessment, personal development, behaviour and welfare and outcomes for pupils.

Each criteria is then graded outstanding, good, requires improvement or inadequate, with the school then given an overall judgement.
