How did your school perform? Government releases performance tables

The tables are based on exam results for GCSEs, AS and A-levels, other academic, technical and applied general qualifications.

• Darlington has second highest proportion of under-performing schools in country, figures reveal

Special schools are not included in the GCSE data.

A number of secondary schools have become academies. In these cases schools may be listed twice - once under their old name and status, with their exam results and once under their new status.

New schools - such as new free schools - may also not have results listed, with n/a given instead.

Some schools and colleges may not cater to either GCSE or A-level pupils, for example they may be an 11-16-year-old school, or a further education college.

Others may not have entered pupils for GCSEs or A-levels and other qualifications, or both, or their results may not have been published.

In these cases these columns state n/a.

Results Key

Left to right, after the name and type of school, the numbers show:

Key Stage 4: GCSEs and equivalent qualifications

• A. The number of pupils eligible for GCSE and equivalent qualifications. This is defined as the number of pupils at the end of Key Stage 4, which usually means all pupils in Year 11.
• B. Number of pupils included in Progress 8 measure.
• C. Progress 8 measure. The new Progress 8 measure looks at the progress a pupil makes from the end of primary school to the end of secondary school. It is a value added measure, which compares pupils' results with the achievements of other pupils that have the same prior attainment. It measures performance across eight qualifications.
• D. Average attainment 8 score per pupil. This measures the achievement of a pupil across 8 qualifications including mathematics and English, which are double-weighted, three further qualifications that count in the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) measure and three other qualifications that can be GCSEs or any other approved equivalent qualification.
• E. Percentage of pupils achieving A*-C in both English and mathematics.
• F. Percentage of pupils achieving the English Baccalaureate. Pupils achieve the EBacc if they gain at least a C in GCSE maths, English, science, history or geography and a language.

Key Stage 5: A-levels and equivalent qualifications

• G. Average point score per academic entry. Academic qualifications include A-levels as well as other academic qualifications such as the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
• H. Average point score per academic entry expressed as a grade.
• I. Average point score per tech level entry. Technical qualifications include a number of Level 3 (advanced) qualifications for students wishing to specialize in a technical occupation or occupational group (for example, this includes City & Guilds Level 3 Diploma Qualifications)
• J. Average point score per tech level entry expressed as a grade.
• K. Average point score per applied general entry qualification. These qualifications include, for example some Pearson BTEC Level 3 courses.
• L. Average point score per applied general entry expressed as a grade.
