Statistics release cancelled
As the demand increases for statistics and data to measure the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department for Education has had to change its data gathering and release practices, focussing efforts on priority analysis and statistics. Our statement of 26 March 2020 explains this further (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/statistics#announcements and, in line with guidance from the Office for Statistics Regulation (https://www.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/covid-19-and-the-regulation-of-statistics/), the decision has been made to cancel this publication. However, note that much of its content is included in the A level and other 16 to 18 results statistical release published on November 26th 2020. We will keep users updated of further changes via the Department for Education Statistics website.
