Number of secondary school pupils in excess of capacity (426) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of pupils in places that exceed their school's capacity for local authority maintained secondary schools. It is based on data from the School Capacity Survey and School Census. Secondary schools cover the year groups 7 to 13. Secondary places include all reported capacity in middle-deemed secondary and all-through schools.
Number of pupils in places that exceed their school's capacity is the difference between school capacity and number of pupils on roll, calculated at school level and then aggregated to national, regional or local authority level.
They include pupils educated in community, foundation, voluntary and middle schools as deemed. Includes academies/free schools and sixth form places. Excludes all special schools places.
Number on roll figures are taken from the summer (May) census for the relevant academic year, except for new schools (including schools that have become academies) where figures are based on data gathered during the school capacity collection.
