What to do:

Now that schools across the UK have received their students A Levels, T- Levels, VTQs, GCSEs and BTECs.

I thought it would be helpful to signpost/update some useful links/resources to help teachers, subject leaders and senior leaders analyse their GCSE results and help them move forward to improving their students results!

• JCQ National Subject Averages- Click hereAQA – ERA (Enhanced Result Analysis) click here 
• Pearson – Results Plus (also has a little for BTEC) click here
• OCR – Active Results click here
• WJEC – Only the options are on their intranet site under the results menu (such as “centre performance”)

Various schools use different templates to analyse results… I wrote a blog here to help.

What to do:

• National GCSE and A level performance figures (including data from previous years & boy/girl analysis) Click here

• Ofqual Analytics – click here
• FFT Trends – click here
• TES – GCSE Results by Subjects – click here
• DFE information on grading for 2025 – click here
• Schools Weeks 8 Top Trends – click here
• Infographics of GCSE grades – click here

A special shout out and mention to the late Dawn Cox who used to spend hours of her own time for others collating links and data, annually.

I have now updating this document here- a 2025 version for everybody. Thank you once again Dawn Cox for your time and selflessness. 

Variations:

Something to consider…

If you only focus on national averages, it risks reinforcing systemic invisibility. Equity-driven analysis means surfacing the uncomfortable truths about who is and who isn’t sharing in ‘success’.
