Note
AS and A-level are kept in different records. No A* zero is invented for pre-2010 A-level or AS-level. ISC is the original publisher of this school-return table. It is a respondent survey, not an independent audit or a complete list of schools. This version is retained alongside school publications; no newer-version preference, denominator repair or reconciliation is assumed. Cumulative percentages calculated from this exact source version only. Published pupil/candidate totals are not denominators. Values rounded to two decimal places; raw integer/fractional numerators and denominators retained.
