England has three coexisting inspection systems — how we translate them into one signal.
Exam results
| Measure | 2024/25 |
|---|---|
| Attainment 8 score | 19.8 |
| Grade 5 or above in English & maths (strong pass) | 7% |
| Grade 4 or above in English & maths (standard pass) | 18.6% |
| Entering the English Baccalaureate | 7% |
Progress 8 is not published nationally for 2024/25 and 2025/26 while KS2 baselines are missing (no SATs in 2020/21). It returns from 2026/27.
“Not published (small cohort)” means the DfE suppressed the figure to protect small cohorts — it is not a zero.
