Published sources differ. Read the source notes before using these figures.

Awarded in 2020–21, when exams were cancelled and schools assessed grades, so kept out of comparisons with exam years.

Publications differ. The original rendered table lists History Pre-U (38 entries) and Philosophy (Pre-U) (24 entries) under A*–E columns inside the published total. This does not support a pure A-level school-wide denominator. The separate Pre-U D/M/P grade distribution and conversion mapping are not supplied. Original stored values remain unchanged; exclude this observation from pure A-level comparison and display the combined scope beside it. Open the publication
