* What do the 'Overall' colours mean?
The colours are a simple guide (provided by Foxtons) for the overall performance of each school based on a combination of Ofsted reports, Contextual Value Added and Average Points Score (where enough data exists). However, we advise that you check the website for each school as there are many other factors reflecting school performances.
School performing very well
Good performance
Below average overall performance
* What is CVA? (Contextual Value Added)
CVA for primary schools is a measure based around a score of 100 which reflects the 'school effect' - how the school's impact on its pupils' achievement matches up against other schools.
What does a school's CVA tell you?
A score of 101 means that, the school has achieved one term's more progress than the national average.
A score of 99 means that the school's pupils made a term's less progress.
The calculations
Each pupil's CVA score is based on a comparison between their actual KS2 performance and the KS2 performance predicted for each pupil by the CVA model, having taken into account the range of factors affecting performance (such as pupil mobility, ethnic background or deprivation).
CVA is not published for independent schools because the Department for Education does not collect such data.

* What do the 'Overall' colours mean?
The colours are a simple guide (provided by Foxtons) for the overall performance of each school based on a combination of Ofsted reports, Contextual Value Added and GCSE results (where enough data exists). However, we advise that you check the website for each school as there are many other factors reflecting school performances.

What is CVA? (Contextual Value Added)
CVA for secondary schools is a measure based around a score of 1000 which reflects the 'school effect' - how the school's impact on its pupils' achievement matches up against other schools.
What does a school's CVA tell you?
Scores above 1000 represent schools where pupils made more progress than similar pupils nationally.
Scores below 1000 represent schools where pupils made less progress.
The calculations
Each pupil's best 8 GCSE and equivalent outcomes are taken into account (plus a separate bonus for achievement in each of English and maths) with the typical performance of pupils with similar characteristics and who had similar KS2 prior attainment. If their results at the end of KS4 are better than the average achieved by similar pupils, the CVA will be positive; if they do less well, it will be negative.
CVA is not published for independent schools because the Department for Education does not collect such data.
