Where this list came from ## The source, and how we filtered it | Source | [UK further education colleges](https://get-information-schools.service.gov.uk/Downloads), Department for Education (Get Information About Schools); Scottish Funding Council; Medr; NI Direct, Northern Ireland Executive (GIAS extract 2026-11-02; SFC college final funding allocations 2026-27 (May 2026); Medr/2025/06 Annex FE (August 2025) and Medr Register 2026-07-31; nidirect page read 2026-11-02) | | --- | --- | | License | Open Government Licence v3.0 | | Cite as | Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. | | How we filtered it | England: every open GIAS establishment of type 18 'Further education', all FurtherEducationType values, keyed on URN, plus open type 45 'Academy 16-19 converter' establishments whose name contains 'college' (sixth-form colleges that became academies). Website is GIAS SchoolWebsite, else Wikidata P856 on the DfE URN (P2253), then on the UKPRN (P4971). Scotland: every college line in Table 2 of the SFC 2026-27 final college allocations, except SRUC (in uk-universities) and the 'Highlands & Islands Region' line, a funding region that names no college; websites from an exact-name Wikidata match. Wales: the 13 institutions on page 1 of Medr/2025/06 Annex FE; five take their website from Medr's HE register, the rest an exact-name Wikidata match. Northern Ireland: the FE section of nidirect's page, the six regional colleges and CAFRE at its root link. | | Instead of | Medr's HE register alone was not used for Wales: it lists only the 5 Welsh colleges that teach HE. UKRLP was unavailable (502). | | Built | 2026-11-02 | The filtering is ours and is disclosed as ours. The source published a list; the decision about which rows of it belong in a cohort was a judgment call, and it is written down so somebody can disagree with it. Distribution ## Where the 226 sites land | Grade | Share of the cohort | Sites | Share | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Adequate | | 113 | 50.0% | | Weak | | 97 | 42.9% | | Not ready | | 14 | 6.2% | | Strong | | 2 | 0.9% | By dimension ## What the cohort earns, dimension by dimension The mean share of each dimension’s available points that this cohort earned. Low here means the whole sector is weak on it, not that one site dragged an average down. The per-site spread is in the dataset. | Dimension | Mean share earned | Mean | | --- | --- | --- | | [#1 · Reach](https://readinessindex.io/tests#d-1) These parameters determine the fundamental ease of access that AI has to your site information. | | 77% | | [#2 · Read](https://readinessindex.io/tests#d-2) AI generally turns off JavaScript. Does your site information survive without it? | | 58% | | [#3 · Understand](https://readinessindex.io/tests#d-3) Does a machine know who and what you are? | | 31% | | [#4 · Act](https://readinessindex.io/tests#d-4) Sitemaps, redirects, 404s, licensing terms, and not wasting the crawl budget. | | 72% | How much of each site we read The cap is 32 URLs and it is a ceiling, not a promise. A portal whose every link points at a different host yields one page; a university yields the full sample. The median here is **32**, the range 1–32, published so that "we sampled 32 URLs per site" cannot become a claim the data does not support. 7 sites in this cohort served a certificate we could not verify. They were read anyway and scored normally, because reporting no response for a site every browser loads would describe our TLS stack rather than the site, and each one carries the finding in its row.

Every site ## Every 284, named, with a report for each Whether or not it has been scanned. Rows with no website on record, sites that were unreachable and sites that turned us away stay in the table with the reason on them, and none of them enters an average: dropping them would shrink the population to the part that was easy to measure. A few points between two neighbors is noise. The box filters every row in the cohort, not only the page you are on; click a header to sort the rows on this page by name or by score.
