Abstract
The OFSTED database contains detailed numerical judgements derived fro m the inspection of the majority of secondary schools in England. Fact or analysis techniques were used to derive relevant factors at the sch ool and pupil levels, which were analysed in relation to both lesson o bservation grades and examination outcomes. The results ave discussed in relation to the usefulness of the OFSTED database for school effect iveness research.
