| Great news! We expect to receive the validated DfE National Data for 2025 in mid-February. We will be using these to create updated benchmarks across our suite, to give you the most up to date analysis. This is also an important milestone, as these DfE based benchmarks will be the first sets since 2019, that are not impacted by the cancellation of examinations in 2020 and 2021, giving you a clear picture of your performance. We’ll be sharing updates and guidance on what this means for your analysis once we have crunched the data. |
