Using this data, we have ranked the top 14 primary schools in the city and also included their latest Ofsted rating.
The education watchdog inspects schools regularly and assigns them one of four different ratings: ‘Outstanding’ is the top rating, followed by ‘Good’, ‘Requires Improvement’ and ‘Inadequate’ across five categories.
The five key categories are quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provisions.
Since September, Ofsted no longer makes an overall effectiveness judgement in inspections.
Here are Bristol’s top 14 best primary schools based on latest progress scores and Ofsted ratings.
Only schools with overall ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ ratings have been included in the ranking.
