Known caveats

Latest Ofsted outcome can mean a graded judgement, a not-judged inspection, or no current URN match in the current Ofsted source, so do not treat it as a complete quality ranking on its own.
The current live school seam is England-only through Get Information About Schools, with nation-specific adapters still to come.
Distance labels are only precise when the query resolves to an exact postcode with geometry; district and area searches show broader location context instead.
