National Oversight Framework data and performance ratings

The publication of the National Oversight Framework (NOF) data for quarter 3 of 2025/6 was released on Thursday 18 March 2026. Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) remains in segment 3 out of a possible five.

The NHS Oversight Framework assesses integrated care boards (ICBs) and NHS trusts to enhance public accountability for performance and identify providers that require support to improve.

All 205 NHS Trusts in England are placed in a segment between 1 (high performing) and 4 (low performing). Segment 5 is reserved for the most challenged organisations that require the most support to improve.

LYPFT is currently in segment 3, indicating that the “organisation and/or wider system are off-track in a range of domains or are in financial deficit.” LYPFT is not reporting a financial deficit or in receipt of deficit support.

The Trust is currently ranked 42 out of 61 mental health and community trusts across England.

It has received a score of 2.57 across 30 measures of performance. Scores range from 1 (high performing), to 4 (low performing).

The Trust has been rated in the following five performance domains:

  • Access to services = 2 (above average)
  • Finance and productivity = 2 (above average)
  • Effectiveness and experience = 4 (low performing)
  • Patient safety = 2 (above average)
  • People and workforce = 4 (low performing)
