Further Education: Autism

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will publish the success rates in each A-Level, T-Level, and applied general qualification, for young people with an Autism Spectrum Disorder or Autism Spectrum Condition.

Answer

Attainment data for A level and applied general qualifications by student characteristics, including those with Autism Spectrum Disorder, is published in the A level and other 16 to 18 results statistical release, which is available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/a-level-and-other-16-to-18-results/2024-25/explore.

Similar data for T levels is not currently published due to small cohort sizes during the programme’s rollout. However, the data will be included in the A level and other 16 to 18 results statistical release from the 2025/26 academic year, also available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/a-level-and-other-16-to-18-results/2024-25/explore.
