Notes

Symbols used:

Footnotes
**Asterisks (**) have been inserted instead of figures for some schools and categories:
  • Counts and percentages based on data for more than 0 but fewer than 5 pupils, because they could be misleading or lead to the identification of individuals.
  • In other cases, it is not possible for the school to have any data for the category, for example, cases where the relevant year group roll figure is zero.
##The symbol (##) indicates that the school has recently opened or merged with another school and this information is not available.

National averages have been calculated from the figures for all available local authority and grant-aided schools, whereas the local authority averages are based on local authority schools only.
