My School is the website set up by the federal government. TBH, it's very controversial and does not give a whole picture of schools as it only goes by exam results on a particular day. Use it with other info from the school themselves and/or people's views. Will send you a PM in a minute :)

i love it though but lots of teachers hate it - thing is when I was in school your life depended on how you were on a particular day (exam day). being a lazy good for nothing, I was rubbish at coursework but performed exceptionally well at exams. I woudl have hated all this consistent effort type of stuff.

i am not sure though that exam driven results are just "on the day'. in my experience, most children perform better if they have been taught well/have been engaged. and of course very bright kids perform well whatever but the teaching has to have been there. you could argue that the other method could conceal a blander education.

maybe, perhaps, wheres my vodka
