GovWire

This release contains an estimate of the proportion of pupils that are not studying a maths qualification at post-16.

These figures are mostly derived from other publicly available statistical releases from the Department for Education (DfE), including:

• A level and AS entries
• KS4 attainment data
• previously unpublished entries for core maths

The methodology does not include:

• pupils studying qualifications in other subjects with maths elements
• those studying maths through vocational and technical qualifications (VTQs), free standing maths qualifications (FSMQs) or the International Baccalaureate
