How the tables were compiled

Key Stage 2 results were supplied by the Qualification and Curriculum Development Agency's (QCDA's) Data Collection Agency and then checked by the Department with schools.

Individual pupil details and Key Stage 2 results were checked with or provided by schools in September 2010.

Information about overall, persistent and unauthorised pupil absence and background information (such as the school name and address) was provided and checked by schools.

If the school did not confirm that it had checked its test results and/or background information, the letter "R" appears after its age range – this is in the glossary.

Further Information

If you have any questions about the information in the Tables, you should first contact the school concerned.
