Date published: 30/08/2024

Is it possible to have the same data but based on all of Scotland results? Also, is it possible to report on the numbers and % of 5 Grade As at Highers level, both Scotland wide and specific to Craigmount High School?

Previous request asked for:

Please can you tell me what numbers and percentages of pupils achieved 5, 6 or 7 Grades A, B or C in the 2024 exam period? Do you also release that data by selected school? If possible, I'd like the data from Scotland wide results and in addition for Craigmount High School Edinburgh.

 

The information for the numbers and percentage of 5 Grade As at Higher level both for Scotland and Craigmount High School is below.

However, where the numbers are four or less for the requested school, disclosure control has been applied and the numbers have been masked as ‘<5.’ This is to prevent possible identification of individuals and their attainment, which is personal information.

Under section 38(1)(b) we have a duty to protect the personal information of individuals and if the low numbers were to be released, it could lead to the identification of individuals .
