What it counts
GCE A-level entries including General Studies in the contemporary ISC AAL total; AS-level and VCE entries excluded.
Note
AAL columns are explicitly defined by ISC as GCE A-level including General Studies. ALG excludes General Studies; GAL mixes A and AS levels and is not used. The denominator is AAL Ents. A* did not exist at A-level in this examination year and is not recorded as zero. Percentages are calculated from grade counts and rounded to one decimal place. Conflicting school publications retain their own separate records. Verification applies to the reported source population; this addition is not promoted to matched whole-school comparison evidence.
