Dear Ms Fosh,
RE: Request for Information- A Level Pupil Numbers in UK

Thank you for your request for information, which was received on 23^rd January, reference
number 2012/0004948. You requested:

I Would like a list of all educational institutions offering A Levels within the UK. Ideally
with would be within an excel spreadsheet. The information I am looking for is:

    - Name of Institution

     - Specialist status (If Any)

     - Location/Town

     - Pupil Numbers

     - Number of Pupils Achiving AAB results or Above in 2011 Results

     - Name of Head of Sixth Form

I have dealt with your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (“the Act”).

The attached spreadsheet contains the requested information that is held by the Department. 
Please note that the Department for Education is responsible for education in England and we
therefore do not hold information relevant to the devolved administrations, so you will need
to contact them directly. The Department also no longer holds current information on the
specialism of schools as they are no longer required to return such information to us. Nor
does the Department routinely collect information on the responsibility “Head of Sixth
Form”, so we are not able to provide the names of the Head of Sixth Form.

Please note that we have needed to suppress some data within the attached spreadsheet to
avoid publishing disclosive information about individuals. The following table describes
what suppressions have been made and the meaning of the symbols used:

No. 16-18 year olds No. entered for A No. achieving AAB
  entered for level 3 Level or double or more
equivalent award
No. 16-18 year olds ≠ 0, but no A Value NE NE
level entries
Number of eligible pupils ≤ 5 Value SUPP SUPP
No. 16-18 year olds ≠ 0 and entries Value Value SUPP
≠ 0 but attainment is 1 or 2

If you are unhappy with the way your request has been handled, you should make a complaint
to the Department by writing to me within two calendar months of the date of this letter.

the original consideration of your request.

contact the Information Commissioner’s Office.
