Warning - Uneven impact of the pandemic on 2021/22 school, college and multi-academy trust performance data.
The DfE recommends:
- Not making direct comparisons with data from previous years or between schools/colleges or MATs.
- Discussing with the schools/colleges or MATs factors that may have influenced these results and consider a range of information when forming a view on how well a school or college is doing, including pupil/student population information.
