"The data will not be used to make grading decisions...Inspectors consider the data in the IDSR as part of their preparation for inspection, using it to inform their discussions with school leaders"
Maybe I'm not smart enough but I dont get this

Similar schools model for attainment gov.uk/government/publicatio…
DfE has developed a "similar schools" data model, available to schools in England later this year but not to the public
IDSR = Inspection Data Summary Report, an Ofsted/DfE data dashboard gov.uk/guidance/school-inspe…
ALT Similar schools data (including a list of 50 similar schools) will be included in the department's upcoming digital platform. This will support improvement in all schools as part of the department’s universal regional improvement for standards and excellence (RISE) programme. The digital platform is designed specifically as a service for schools, allowing them to benchmark their performance. As a school-facing product, it will not be publicly accessible. The platform will help schools to understand their strengths, identify areas for improvement, and then to connect with other schools, helping enable a self-improving system. It will also signpost schools to resources available to support school improvement.

The end of the school year can bring relief, pride, exhaustion, uncertainty and hope.
This summer I'm offering a small number of coaching places for educators who'd value time and space to reflect, reset and start September with greater clarity.
