Provision of GCE A Level Subjects in 2018. Statistics Report Series No. 130
Lim, Carmen H. J.; Gill, Tim
Cambridge University Press & Assessment
This report looks at the provision of A level subjects in England in 2018. Provision in a subject is defined as the number or percentage of schools with at least one student taking the subject. It could be argued that this may not cover all of the 'provision' since schools might offer to provide a subject, but none of their students wants to study it. This report was produced using publicly available data from the Department for Education's (DfE) "Find and compare schools in England" service. The dataset consisted of Key Stage 5 (KS5) results of all subjects provided by each school and college in England. Other school information, such as schools' sex composition, admissions policy, and the number of disadvantaged pupils at the end of KS5 were also available. The level of provision is presented by the following school classifications: school type, school attainment, school deprivation level, school sex composition, and school size. However, it should be noted that the analysis is at the simplest level and takes no account of interactions between these classifications.
