Dear Alexandra

Thank you for your Freedom of Information request of 10^th August 2022.

We have completed the compilation of information in response to your
request for information about the mean, 10^th, 25^th, 50^th, 75^th, 90^th
and 99^th percentile scores for the following modules in the 2019/20,
2020/21 and 2021/22 academic years:

MATH0033 MATH0045 MATH0046 MATH0047
MATH0048 MATH0050 MATH0051 MATH0058
COMP0015 STAT0002 STAT0003 STAT0004
STAT0005 STAT0006 STAT0007 STAT0008
STAT0009 STAT0010 STAT0011 STAT0013
STAT0014 STAT0017 STAT0018 STAT0019
STAT0020 STAT0023 STAT0024 STAT0025
STAT0035      

We can confirm that we hold some information of the description specified
in your request and this information is provided in the attached
spreadsheet.

As you will see within the attached spreadsheet, we have withheld
percentile scores where they relate to a group of 22 or fewer students
(represented as ≤22).  This information has been withheld because with
such low numbers, even providing this information on an anonymised basis
there is a risk the individuals may be identifiable which means that these
are personal data of third parties, or if linked with other personal
identifiers in the public domain, would be likely to become personal
data.  This information has been withheld under Section 40(2) of the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) by virtue of Section 40(3A)(i).

Section 40(2) of the FOIA allows a public authority to withhold
information under the FOIA where (i) the requested information is personal
data relating to someone other than the requester, and (ii) its disclosure
would breach any of the Data Protection principles.  In this case, we
believe that the requested information could relate to and identify
individuals and therefore would be personal data.  The disclosure of these
personal data would not be within the reasonable expectations of the
individuals concerned and it would be unfair to do so; this therefore
breaches the first Data Protection principle.

As the Section 40(2) exemption is an absolute one, there is no need to
conduct a public interest test.

You are free to use any information supplied for your own use, including
for non-commercial research purposes. The information may also be used for
the purposes of news reporting. However, any other type of re-use, for
example by publishing or issuing copies to the public, will require the
permission of the copyright owner.

If you are unhappy with our response to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request a review of our decision, please email
[1][email address]. Emails should include the words ‘Internal
