The government advise that school performance data should be considered alongside a range of other information about the school, which could include looking at school websites, reading Ofsted reports, and speaking to the school directly. Conclusions should not be drawn on a single piece of data alone.  Pupils included in this performance data will have experienced some disruption due to Covid-19 earlier in their schooling, which will have affected individual pupils and schools differently.

* Comparisons to previous years’ 16 to 18 destinations data should be made with caution.  Students are included in these measures when they reach the end of 16-18 study.  The ‘trigger’ rules for deciding when this happens changed in 2020/21.  The impact of this, for one year only, was to reduce the number of student reported in accountability measures for 2020/21.
