Student Performance Analysis

National percentage figures for GCSE grades (Boys only)


The top line of figures for each subject is 2008 followed by previous years. Where subjects appear to be missing results figures this is usually because the naming or classification of the subject has changed. Try a different subject title.
The figures for 2008 are only provisional as of August 2008
