(2) how many and what proportion of pupils of each ethnic group who were (a) eligible and (b) not eligible for free school meals achieved an A grade in A-level further mathematics in each year since 1997.
Figures giving a breakdown of ethnicity by free school meal eligibility for the requested indicators cannot be provided due to the requirement to suppress small numbers to protect confidentiality.
Figures for A level achievement by pupil characteristics only relate to qualifications taken in maintained schools, not independent schools, sixth form colleges (SFCs) or further education colleges and therefore numbers are low. Further disaggregation combining ethnicity and FSM eligibility gives figures that fall below the threshold for disclosure.
