Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, most exams and assessments did not take place in the 2019/20, or 2020/21 academic years.
The government also announced that it would not publish school or college level results data in autumn 2020 or autumn 2021 and that this data would not be used to hold schools and colleges to account.
They have also made clear that results data from 2020/21 will not be used in school and college level performance measures in future years.

School results for GLD continue to be above that of the national standard. APS (Average Point Score) has now been above that of the National for the last three years.
