Tell us a school result from England. We’ll tell you what it means.
A free public read of state-funded school results in England. Private schools and devolved nations (Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland) are not covered — their data is published separately and on different scales.
Year 6 · Key Stage 2 SATs
Your child sat the SATs. What does the result actually mean?
At the end of Year 6, pupils in state-funded primary schools in England sit national SATs in reading, maths, and grammar/punctuation/spelling. Scores are scaled 80–120, with 100 the expected standard and 110 the higher standard. Type in a result and we’ll show you where it sits.

How does a primary school compare?
Search any of the 15,751 state-funded primary schools in England. Type a school name, local authority, or postcode — you’ll get the school’s average scaled scores, the share of pupils meeting expected and higher standards, and how that compares to the national average. If you’ve already entered a SATs score above, you’ll also see how that score sits against the typical pupil at this school.
Year 11 · GCSE
A grade is a number. What it means depends on where it sits.
Pick a subject and a grade. We’ll show you where that result sits against the national distribution. You can then layer on a school comparison — the dataset covers all 3,344 state-funded secondary schools in England. (Private schools and schools in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland are not included.)

Year 13 · age 18 · A-level results
A-level results, three ways.
Look up a single A-level grade against the national distribution; calculate UCAS tariff for a full set of results; and search for any state sixth form in England. (Private schools and schools in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland are not included — their A-level data is published separately.)

UCAS tariff — what’s the full set worth?
Enter grades for each A-level. Universities compare candidates by total UCAS tariff (A* = 56, A = 48, B = 40, C = 32, D = 24, E = 16).

How does a sixth form compare?
Search any of the 3,344 state-funded secondary schools in England. Most have sixth forms. The metrics shown here are the school’s GCSE-era performance — those Year 11 pupils are today’s Year 13s, so this is a meaningful read on the prior attainment of the cohort that just sat A-levels. For the school’s actual A-level figures, follow the deep-link to DfE’s Compare School and College Performance service.
A note on data: DfE’s Explore Education Statistics catalogue publishes A-level data only aggregated by characteristic (region, sex, school type), not per individual sixth form. Per-school A-level figures live exclusively on compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk. The deep-link button takes you straight to the relevant page for the school you searched.
