Local authorities, schools and colleges can use this information to assess their area’s performance against previous years and neighbouring localities.

The National Client Caseload Information System (NCCIS) management information requirement page has information for local authorities collecting data about young people’s post-16 activities.

Current participation figures are now published together with NEET data at NEET and participation: local authority figures.

This release provides data from the annual school census data return, which is mandatory for schools to complete.

The main tables provide breakdowns of pupil data at national and local authority level. The tables includes pupil characteristics, such as:

The underlying data provides breakdowns at school level.

The technical document provides metadata and methodological information on the published data.

Changes to this release for 2019

We have reviewed the tables that will be published in this release in 2019. We are following the principle that we produce Excel tables for our highest profile breakdowns, with supporting underlying data files containing more detailed breakdowns.

This is part of DfE plans to improve the coherence of our statistics and approach to how statistics are given out.

The annex document outlines the information we plan to publish in 2019. It includes a background document explaining the changes and inviting feedback.

Information on all schools in England, including the:

• unique reference number
• local authority
• school name
• address
• type of school
• age range
• phase (nursery, primary or secondary)
• contact information

This data comes from http://www.education.gov.uk/edubase/home.xhtml">EduBase, the Department for Education’s register of schools. We update this information every month.

This publication analyses the characteristics of pupils by their:

• special educational needs provision
• type of need

It’s based on data collected through the:

• school census
• general hospital school census
• school-level annual school census (SLASC) for independent schools

These statistics cover the following topics:

• early years
• primary school attainment
• secondary school attainment
• school quality
• 16 to 19 education
• post-19 education

We are publishing this data to support DfE’s opportunity areas programme.

This publication was previously named ‘Participation rates in higher education’.

These statistics measure entry to higher education for students who are:

• 17 to 30 years old
• in higher education (HE) for the first time
• living in England
• at UK higher education providers (HEPs) and English, Welsh and Scottish further education providers (FEPs)
• staying in HE for at least 6 months

Statistics are available by age, sex and mode of study (full-time or part-time). Experimental breakdowns are also included for level of study and provider type.

The future of this publication has been under review and methodological changes are planned for 2022 that will derive participation measures by tracking school pupil cohorts into higher education.

You can feedback on the usefulness and format of this statistical series by email to he.statistics@education.gov.uk.

In 2018, we revised the regional and local authority (LA) level data on this page. To allow users to make multi-year and geographical comparisons more easily, we have now published a multi-year and multi-level file.

It includes estimates to account for schools who did not provide information in a given year for the staff headcount and full-time equivalent (FTE) numbers, so that year on year figures are comparable. Further work has also been done since the initial publication to improve the quality of the data upon which some of the other indicators were based.

Visit ‘School workforce in England: November 2018’ and select ‘Revised subnational school workforce census data 2010 to 2018’. You can also view the updated 2018 methodology note.
