Note
Original column descriptions are retained as measure names. GCE A/AS and later Level 3-equivalent point scores use changing government rules and scales; they are not A-level-only grade distributions. Pupil thresholds are not entry-grade shares. Blanks and suppression symbols remain unresolved, never zero. Identity: {'LEA sort code within region': 2, 'LEA number': 825, 'ESTAB number': 6018, 'institution postcode': 'HP11 1PE'}. This observation belongs to the 1997 column of the 1999 publication. Later-source versions are kept separately; no revision winner or cross-scale trend is presumed.
