Footnotes

  1. Includes data for pupils in state-funded mainstream schools.
  2. Overall absence is calculated over all of KS4. This is equivalent to years 10 and 11 over academic years 2017/18 to 2018/19. Only pupils for whom valid absence data exists for all academic years have been included.
  3. Enrolment level absence information has been aggregated to pupil level using a unique pupil identifier, summing all absence and possible session data for each pupil regardless of which school the sessions were accrued at. See methodology.
