Over the last few weeks we have given a number of maths challenges to @BedsSchTrust schools.
With over 100 entries to far and still a week to go it will be hard judging the different key stage competitions.

OFSTED Grade distribution for the 175 primary school inspections published to date. Because it was raining and I was bored. No exceptionals given out since the glut in the pilot schools. Achievement most likely to be judged NA, and also seems to have driven SM judgements.

Ofsted uses identical phrasing in all reports for many sections - so why not simply have a drop down list or a list of tick boxes?
With thanks to @DeputyGrocott for curating this. DM him for the full list.
