Percentage of pupils achieving English Baccalaureate (EBacc) - pupils from non disadvantaged backgrounds (6068) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of pupils from non disadvantaged backgrounds achieving the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) as a percentage of the number of pupils from non disadvantaged backgrounds at the end of KS4.
The English Baccalaureate (EBacc) was first introduced into the performance tables in 2009/10. It allows people to see how many pupils get a grade C or above in the core academic subjects at key stage 4. The EBacc is made up of English, maths, science, a language, and history or geography.
Data prior to 2013/14 is not directly comparable with later periods due to two major reforms 1. Professor Alison Wolf's Review of Vocational Education recommendations which: restrict the qualifications counted; prevent any qualification from counting as larger than one GCSE; and introduced a cap on the number of non-GCSEs included in performance measures at two per pupil. 2. An early entry policy to only count a pupil's first attempt at a qualification. https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/399238/SFR_02_2015-revised_GCSE_and_equivalents.pdf
Form 2014/15, disadvantaged pupils include pupils known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) in any spring, autumn, summer, alternative provision or pupil referral unit census from year 6 to year 11 or are looked after children for at least one day or are adopted from care. For previous years, they included pupils known to be eligible for FSM in any spring, autumn, summer, alternative provision or pupil referral unit census from year 6 to year 11 or are looked after children.
Local authority, region and the total (state-funded sector) figures cover achievements in state-funded schools only. They do not include pupils recently arrived from overseas.
