Updated for November 2016 data exchange.
On page 4 of the 'Summer 2016 Data Exchange Procedures' we changed the reference year for legacy AS to 2015 rather than the average of 2011/2012. This is to provide a meaningful comparison with the 2016 cohort, given that students in 2011 and 2012 had the opportunity to enter units and certificate in January. This change has the support of all exam boards.
