65.1% achieved 2+ A-Levels (or equivalent) – highest in the last 3 years (NI: 57.7%)
85.8% achieved at least 5 GCSE's grades A*-C (or equivalent) – highest in the last 3 years (NI: 81.1%)
73.6% achieved at Least 5 GCSE's grades A*-C (or equivalent) including GCSE English and GCSE Maths – lower than the previous year (NI: 66.0%)
2 The numbers relating to qualifications are cumulative totals of the level detailed and those above. For example 81.1% of school leavers achieved at least 5 GCSEs A*-C Inc. equivalents. This proportion is calculated by adding those with a highest qualification of 3+ A-levels, 2 A-levels, 1 A-level & 5 GCSEs A*-C and dividing by the total number of school leavers. Since 2012/13 two AS qualifications have not been counted as one A-level as in previous years.
