Q4
Responding to this aspect of your request would result in reporting small
numbers (fewer than 5) in some categories. Reporting this information
would create a risk of some individuals being identifiable. This
information is therefore exempt from disclosure under section
40(2)/40(3)(a)(i) of the Freedom of Information Act (2000), as it is
personal data relating to those individuals.
Q5
Yes, Indian CBSE 12th grade is recognised against other similar
international qualifications. We recognise an 85% average in Standard XII
as comparable to AAA at A Level.
I hope that this is of use. If you are unhappy with the way we have
handled your request you can ask for an internal review. Details of how to
do this can be found at: [1]http://www.ncl.ac.uk/foi/access/complain...
If you are not happy with the outcome of the internal review, you then
have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner's Office
for a decision. Details of how to do this can be found at:
