Footnotes

1. All figures include LA maintained schools, academies and free schools. Excludes alternative provision and independent schools.
2. Disadvantaged pupils are defined as: those who were registered as eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years, children looked after by a local authority or have left local authority care in England and Wales through adoption, a special guardianship order, a residence order or a child arrangements order. These 2022 statistics are revised and now include pupils in the care of a local authority. These pupils were not included in the provisional statistics unless they were also eligible for free school meals during the last 6 years or ceased to be looked-after in the last year.
3. Figures for 2022 are based on revised data. Figures for other years are based on final data.
4. Data is not available for 2020 and 2021 as assessments were cancelled in these years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
5. Science teacher assessment measures from 2019 onwards are not directly comparable to previous years due to changes in the science teacher assessment frameworks.
6. Users are advised to take care when interpreting writing and science teacher assessment measures and reading, writing and maths (combined) measures for West Sussex, particularly when making comparisons over time or between local authorities. This local authority has higher rates of missing teacher assessment in 2022 than other areas - see ‘Data quality’ section for further detail.
