Footnotes
- Figures for the total number of students may not match the sum of females and males, as not all institutions recorded the sex for every student.
- Disadvantage status is as reported at the end of key stage 4. Analysis involving disadvantage status includes students at state-funded schools and colleges only.
- EHC plans and statements of SEN are legal documents which detail the needs of the individual student, and the assistance they are to receive.
- Prior attainment and progress scores consist of students at the end of 16-18 study who are subject to the 16-19 maths and English Condition of Funding requirements. These are students who did not achieve a 9-4 or equivalent in qualifications which count as prior attainment by the end of key stage 4. For further details, see the guidance on the Condition of Funding.
- The list of qualifications that count towards the English and maths progress measure can be found at 16 to 18 English and maths progress measure qualifications (opens in new tab).
