IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Key stage 4 and 16 to 18 performance measures will be published by the Secretary of State for the 2021 to 2022 academic year.
For key stage 4 and 16 to 18 results, you should update your website to include the latest measures which, once published, will be based on tests, exams and assessments from the 2021 to 2022 academic year.
Alongside your key stage 4 and 16 to 18 results, you may wish to add the following sentence:
“Given the uneven impact of the pandemic on school and college performance data, the government has said you should not make direct comparisons between the performance data for one school or college and another, or to data from previous years.”
Key stage 2 (end of primary school) results
You do not need to publish your key stage 2 results for the academic year 2021 to 2022 on your website, as the Secretary of State will not publish this data. This is because statutory assessments returned for the first time since 2019, without adaptations, after disruption caused by the pandemic.
You should continue to display your school’s most recent key stage 2 performance measures, as published by the Secretary of State, on your website. For most schools, these will be the performance measures published for the 2018 to 2019 academic year.
You should clearly mark that these performance measures are for the 2018 to 2019 academic year and are not current. For example, you could add the following sentence to your results:
UPDATED DEC 15, 2022: “The government will not publish KS2 school level data for the 2021 to 2022 academic year. The last available public data is from the 2018 to 2019 academic year. It is important to note that the data from that year may no longer reflect current performance.”
IMPORTANT NOTE: for Academies, Free Schools & Trusts all these requirements are listed as should rather than must
