Footnotes
- Figures for disadvantage only available from 2016/17 onwards due to changes in measurement.
- Figures for English and maths are based on those educated in the mainstream state-funded sector in year 11, therefore overall attainment rates differ to headline measures (see the 'About this publication' section) although trends are comparable.
- Condition of Funding changes for young people were introduced by the Education and Skills Funding Agency from 2014/15 onwards. This has resulted in most students having to study English and/or maths at level 2 as part of their programmes between the ages of 16 and 19 if they are yet to achieve qualifications at this level.
- Prior attainment is primarily determined by GCSE grade achieved in year 11. Grade levels are categorised as follows: Grade U includes those labelled as '0', 'X', and 'Q', Grade 1 includes those previously classified as G in the legacy system, Grade 2 includes those previously classified as E or F in the legacy system and Grade 3 includes those previously classified as D in the legacy system.
- Figures for pupil characteristics are based on those educated in the mainstream state-funded sector in year 11, therefore overall attainment rates differ to headline measures (see the 'About this publication' section) although trends are comparable.
- See accompanying methodology for definitions of characteristics.
