If you have a Locrating subscription ...

[kriddle]

... please can you tell me whether it pulls data from Ofsted ParentView or does it use its own reviews?

I'm asking because I've just read a statement from someone that said "According to Locrating.com, 80% of parents at school X say their child has been bullied". I'm wondering if this just is a misinterpretation of answers to the Ofsted question "My child has been bullied and the school dealt with the bullying quickly and effectively", or whether they've actually surveyed parents independently.

Actually, don't worry, I managed to find a Locrating blog that confirms they use Parent View.

I can guess what has happened. The school was last inspected in 2018 when the relevant Ofsted survey question was "This school deals effectively with bullying", and 80% of parents agreed or strongly agreed with this statement. However, I bet that Locrating has mapped the answer to the newer Ofsted survey question "My child has been bullied and the school dealt with the bullying quickly and effectively".

🙄 Shocking if so.

I cannot understand why people rely on Locrating. Every single catchment there is a circle and at least for my borough it is very inaccurate.
