Key Stage 4 Performance 2025

Product Description

This statistical release focuses on the GCSE and vocational and technical qualification (VTQ) results of pupils at the end of Key Stage 4 (KS4) attending state-funded schools in England.

Figures are available at national, regional and local authority level with some lower-level breakdowns such as local authority district and parliamentary constituency. This release includes pupil characteristic breakdowns such as disadvantage status, free school meal status, special educational needs (SEN) status and ethnicity. This includes new crosstabulations by ethnicity, disadvantage, sex and SEN. There are also new breakdowns by young carer status.

The data in this release is provisional. It is based on the results data that awarding organisations supply to the department. This includes the vast majority of pupils’ results; but it does not yet take account of any amendment requests made by schools during the Autumn checking exercise. These amendments will be incorporated into the revised release, alongside the revised secondary school performance tables.
