For the 2021 to 2022 academic year, due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic during this period, we strongly discourage users of the data from drawing conclusions based on direct comparisons with performance data from earlier years.

We strongly advise against direct comparisons between the performance data for one school, college or multi-academy trust and another without taking any broader contexts into account.
