Uses IntersectionObserver on each section element. Multiple thresholds
(0, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0) track the intersection ratio of every
section simultaneously; whichever has the highest visible ratio at any
moment becomes the active item. rootMargin offsets for the sticky nav
height so a section is only considered active once it's genuinely in
view beneath the bar.
Active link gets .sectionNavLinkActive — coral background + white text,
matching the phase tab active style used elsewhere in the product.
Observer is cleaned up on unmount.

- Drop the auto-generated italic summary sentence from the hero — adds
little beyond what the chips and stats already convey.
- Oversubscribed hero chip: tone-gold → tone-coral so it reads as a
warning rather than a neutral highlight.
- Remove unused buildSchoolSummary import and .heroSummary CSS.

History chart
- Strip the redundant school-name title (already the page heading)
- Default to 2 visible lines: Reading, Writing & Maths expected % (teal,
bold) + Exceeding (gold, lighter); progress score lines hidden by
default, togglable via legend
- Add dashed national average reference line for RWM (primary) or
Attainment 8 (secondary) so the school's trajectory is always in
context
- Add trend summary chip above the chart computed from the data
("↓ Peaked at 90% (2016/17), currently 70%")
- Add COVID footnote when 2019/20 and 2020/21 data is absent
Ofsted section
- Collapse the four identical "Outstanding / Outstanding / Outstanding /
Outstanding" boxes into a single prose line when all sub-grades match
the overall verdict; show individual cards only when grades differ
SATs sub-metrics
- DeltaChip vs national average on Expected level row for Reading,
Writing and Maths (national averages already in the API response)
Admissions
- Fix label: "Year 3 places per year" → "Reception places per year" for
primary schools
Pupils & Inclusion
- DeltaChip + national avg hint on Eligible for pupil premium and
Pupils receiving SEN support (both keys present in /api/national-averages)

The staging model was mapping EES column ``proportion_1stprefs_v_totaloffers``
straight onto ``first_preference_offer_pct``. That raw column is not a
percentage — it is a ratio of first-preference applications to total offers
(an oversubscription indicator, >1 means oversubscribed), so OLQH rendered
as "1%" when the true first-choice success rate is 27/42 = 64%.
The frontend display code is not at fault and is not patched here —
data-quality issues must be fixed at the source.
- stg_ees_admissions: compute ``first_preference_offer_pct`` as
``100 * number_1st_preference_offers / times_put_as_1st_preference`` —
of families who listed this school first, the % that received an offer
(0–100). Guard against divide-by-zero.
- stg_ees_admissions: expose the legitimate EES ratio as the new column
``oversubscription_ratio`` (1st-preference applications per place) for
future use, clearly named.
- fact_admissions, FactAdmissions model, data_loader: propagate the new
``oversubscription_ratio`` column.
- SchoolAdmissions type: document both columns inline.
- buildSchoolSummary: reword the oversubscription clause so it reads
sensibly across the whole 0–100 range (no more "just 64%").
- Hero chip subtitle: clearer phrasing "X% of first-choice applicants
offered a place".
Requires a dbt run of stg_ees_admissions and fact_admissions on deploy
so the new column materialises.

- Drop the "Above national average" chip — the DeltaChip under the 70% /
Attainment 8 number already carries the same signal, so the chip was
duplicative and added noise.
- At-a-glance stats: switch from grid(auto-fit) to flex with a fixed
3rem column gap so the numbers cluster at the start of the row rather
than spreading across the full width of the header card.
- Add to Compare button: larger padding, bumped font, soft shadow, and
self-align centre so it sits in balance with the bigger headline
rather than floating tiny in the top-right corner.

The API returns ``framework`` as the literal string "NULL" for older OEIF
inspections (it comes from the upstream ``event_type_grouping`` column),
not real null. The original render path checks ``=== 'ReportCard'`` and
correctly treats anything else as OEIF — but buildOfstedHeroChip inverted
that and treated anything not exactly equal to ``'OEIF'`` as Report Card,
so OLQH (inspected Nov 2023, Outstanding) was being labelled as a Report
Card school in the hero strip and the at-a-glance tile.
- Invert the helper: only branch into Report Card when framework is
explicitly ``'ReportCard'``; treat OEIF / null / "NULL" / anything else
as OEIF, and require ``overall_effectiveness`` to render the grade word.
- Replace the toneClass field (which reused .ofstedGrade{N} / .rcGrade{N}
badge classes and dragged in their backgrounds) with a clean tone enum
``teal | green | gold | coral | neutral``. The serif Ofsted heroStat
picked up the badge background and rendered as a green box around
"Report Card" — gone now.
- Hero chip backgrounds use color-mix() against the tone variable so all
five tones share one rule.

Elevates the primary school detail hero from a flat report header into a
scannable editorial block. Parents can read the headline signal in seconds.
- A1: bump .schoolName to clamp(2rem, 5vw, 3.25rem) Playfair.
- A2: framework-aware signal chip strip via new buildOfstedHeroChip() helper.
Branches on ofsted.framework so Report Card schools never show a fake
overall grade — they get "Ofsted Report Card" + inspection date +
Safeguarding: Met/Not met. OEIF schools keep the grade word.
- A3: oversized Playfair stats — Reading, Writing & Maths % (primary) or
Attainment 8 (secondary) with inline DeltaChip vs national, Ofsted
verdict with tone colouring, and first-choice offer rate.
- B1: italic serif one-sentence summary via buildSchoolSummary() helper,
also framework-aware so Report Card schools are described by framework,
not a synthetic grade.
- C1: new DeltaChip component reused in the two headline KS2 metric cards
(rwm_expected_pct, rwm_high_pct).
All copy uses "Reading, Writing & Maths" in full. Secondary detail view
untouched in this slice.

- Backend: replace INNER JOIN ks2 with UNION ALL (ks2 + ks4) so primary
and secondary schools both appear in the main DataFrame
- Backend: add /api/national-averages endpoint computing means from live
data, replacing the hardcoded NATIONAL_AVG constant on the frontend
- Backend: add phase filter param to /api/schools; return phases from
/api/filters; fix hardcoded "phase": "Primary" in school detail endpoint
- Backend: add KS4 metric definitions (Attainment 8, Progress 8, EBacc,
English & Maths pass rates) to METRIC_DEFINITIONS and RANKING_COLUMNS
- Frontend: SchoolDetailView is now phase-aware — secondary schools show
a GCSE Results section (Att8, P8, E&M, EBacc) instead of SATs; phonics
tab hidden for secondary; admissions says Year 7 instead of Year 3;
history table shows KS4 columns; chart datasets switch for secondary
- Frontend: new MetricTooltip component (CSS-only ⓘ icon) backed by
METRIC_EXPLANATIONS — added to RWM, GPS, SEN, EAL, IDACI, progress
scores and all KS4 metrics throughout SchoolDetailView and SchoolCard
- Frontend: METRIC_EXPLANATIONS extended with KS4 terms (Attainment 8,
Progress 8, EBacc) and previously missing terms (SEN, EHCP, EAL, IDACI)
- Frontend: SchoolCard expands "RWM" to "Reading, Writing & Maths" and
shows Attainment 8 / English & Maths Grade 4+ for secondary schools
- Frontend: FilterBar adds Phase dropdown (Primary / Secondary / All-through)
- Frontend: HomeView hero copy updated; compact list shows phase-aware metric
- Global metadata updated to remove "primary only" framing

Ofsted replaced single overall grades with Report Cards from Nov 2025.
Both systems are retained during the transition period.
- DB: new framework + 9 RC columns on ofsted_inspections (schema v4)

- Frontend: branch on framework='ReportCard' to show safeguarding badge
+ 8-category grid; fall back to legacy OEIF layout otherwise;
always show inspection date in both layouts
- CSS: rcGrade1–5 and safeguardingMet/NotMet classes

The EES statistics API only exposes ~13 publications; admissions data is not
among them. Switch to the EES content API (content.explore-education-statistics.
service.gov.uk) which covers all publications.
- ees.py: add get_content_release_id() and download_release_zip_csv() that
fetch the release ZIP and extract a named CSV member from it
- admissions.py: use corrected slug (primary-and-secondary-school-applications-
and-offers), correct column names from actual CSV (school_urn,
total_number_places_offered, times_put_as_1st_preference, etc.), derive
first_preference_offers_pct from offer/application ratio, filter to primary
schools only, keep most recent year per URN
Also includes SchoolDetailView UX redesign: parent-first section ordering,
plain-English labels, national average benchmarks, progress score colour
coding, expanded header, quick summary strip, and CSS consolidation.
