3 secondary schools in Sale, sorted by latest
Ofsted grade. Grades come from two inspection systems; each school page states
which, and the guide explains the
difference. A grade shown with a year, like "Good (2019)", is the last one
Ofsted published for that school and sorts below current grades. We don't
invent rankings.
