Notes
Symbols used:
| ** | Asterisks (**) have been inserted instead of figures for some schools and categories, where percentages are based on data for more than 0 but fewer than 5 pupils, because they could be misleading or lead to the identification of individuals. |
|---|---|
| ## | 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.
