Performance Data 2023

School and college performance data for the 2022/2023 academic year should be used with caution:

• In 2022/23, qualifications returned to pre-pandemic standards. Performance measures that are based on qualification results will reflect this, and cannot be directly compared to measures from 2021/2022.

• There are ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected individual schools, colleges and students differently.
