A new report card based on Ofsted inspections is due to be introduced from September 2025 .

Three areas in England have already been looking at developing a more detailed local report.

In Camden , a newly-styled school report card is being piloted, designed to be used on smartphones and tablets.

It will allow parents to search in an area around them for schools and go into a site where they can explore through words, pictures and data what the schools are like.

Regent High School head Gary Moore welcomes scrapping of Ofsted 's 'brutal' judgements.

Camden intends to keep on including Ofsted judgements in the new national report cards.

Gospel Oak head teacher John Hayes says he wanted to collaborate on something “more authentic, more useful to parents”.
