Footnotes

  1. Totals may be less than the sum of separate institution types as students who attend multiple institutions during 16-19 study are only included once in aggregations of those institutions.
  2. 'All state funded schools' includes city technology colleges (CTCs) and state-funded special schools. Figures for these institution types are not shown separately in the table. Excludes pupil referral units (PRUs), alternative provision (AP), hospital schools, non-maintained special schools, independent schools, independent special schools and independent schools approved to take pupils with special educational needs (SEN). These institution types are included in 'All schools'.
  3. For 2024/25, final data is reported instead of the revised data normally presented for historical comparison. This is due to data quality issues affecting late results and Q grades in the 2024/25 revised data.
