  2. Writing teacher assessment and reading, writing and maths (combined) measures from 2018 onwards are not directly comparable to previous years due to changes in the writing teacher assessment frameworks.
  3. Figures for 2025 are based on provisional data. Figures for other years are based on final data.
  4. Figures include academy sponsor led and academy converter which opened before 12 September and schools which were local authority maintained schools on 12 September.
