What is ASP?
ASP stands for Analyse School Performance
The DfE’s Analyse School Performance (ASP) service was launched in April 2017 and provides schools and local authorities with a range of analyses predominantly built around the DfE headline measures.
It is a key source of data from the Department for Education (DfE) and so used by School Improvement Advisers and OFSTED Inspectors to judge your school. It is important for headteachers that they are fully aware of what it says as this could drive the data conversations at a later date.
The release data varies from year to year depending on when the data is available. To aid schools, it is released twice – firstly with unvalidated data (usually Nov/Dec) and then again with the validated data (Jan/Feb).

How do I access my school’s ASP?
Access to the ASP reports is via the Department for Education’s Secure Access portal, DfE Sign-in. If anyone in a school needs access and does not have login details, then they should liaise with the DfE Sign-in Approver in their school for further advice for accessing the site and for login details.
