Footnotes
- The number of eligible pupils by the end of year 2 includes pupils with a valid year 2 phonics data and pupils with both valid year 1 phonics (year 2 Autumn term phonics in 2022 - see methodology for further information) and key stage 1 teacher assessment data. This figure will be slightly different to the number of pupils at the end of key stage 1.
- Includes all pupils who participated in the phonics screening check, those disapplied, those absent for the entire period of which the check could be administered and those with maladministration. Pupils with missing, or invalid results are not included in the calculations.
- Regional totals have been rounded to the nearest 10. There may be discrepancies between the sum of constituent items and totals.
- The phonic mark can be between 0 and 40. If a pupil’s mark is at or above the threshold mark they are considered to have reached the expected standard. The threshold mark was 32 in 2023.
