As at 31 August 2010, based on the old Ofsted methodology[1], 80,610 pupils attended academy sponsor-led schools, and 7,253,750 pupils attended local authority maintained schools.<\/p>

<\/p>

As at 31 December 2017, based on the old Ofsted methodology1, 694,329 pupils attended academy sponsor-led schools, and 4,218,520 pupils attended local authority maintained schools.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

[1] Following a consultation, new Ofsted methodology contains some changes to the way in which they report on schools\u2019 most recent inspection grades. The data includes the most recent inspection grades for an inspection of an earlier version of the same school (inspected under a different unique reference number (URN)) for schools yet to be inspected under their current URN. See: http://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/changes-to-ofsteds-statistical-reporting-of-inspection-outcomes-for-maintained-schools-and-academies<\/a> for the consultation and an analysis of the responses.<\/p>

The national pupil projections are only produced for the whole of England and do not break down projected pupil numbers by local education authority or region. They are derived from the 2012-based national population projections for England produced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS)[1] who used assumptions which were considered to best reflect demographic patterns at that time.<\/p>

<\/p>

The ONS uses assumptions on the levels of future fertility, net migration and life expectancy in the production of their population projections. They use central assumptions for the principal projections and alternative high and low assumptions to produce variant projections.<\/p>

<\/p>

New national pupil projections, based on the ONS\u2019s mid-2014 national population projections[2], are scheduled to be published on 14 July 2016. The timing and content of National Statistics releases are a matter for the Head of Profession for statistics. The month of publication was pre-announced in 2015 and the specific date of publication was pre-announced on 26 February 2016.<\/p>

The Department for Education publishes pupil results at the end of key stage 4, which signals the end of compulsory education. Information on the key stage 4 results of pupils by admission basis and school type is published in the \u201cGCSE and equivalent results in England, 2012 to 2013 (revised)\u201d[1] Statistical First Release.
