Demographics Report - National Statistics sources

The Reports > Demographics report compares pupil demographics data to national figures.

National figures come from the government's Explore our statistics and data website and the Compare Schools service.

Insight aims to show national figures for the current year. Where these are unavailable we will use figures from the previous year. If you think any figure is out of date or incorrect, please contact the Insight support team.

Primary schools

Insight uses the national data for state-funded English primary schools. This excludes secondaries and special schools.

FSM6

The demographics report shows the percentage of pupils eligible for FSM in the last 6 years (FSM6) because the national comparator is readily available. Unfortunately, the national percentage of disadvantaged pupils is not currently published.
