Pupils are eligible for free school meals if their parents or guardians are in receipt of certain means-tested benefits or support payments. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic may have impacted on the quality of this data and may have resulted in over recording of this data in 2020 to 2022.
A child has special educational needs if he or she has a learning difficulty which requires special educational provision to be made for him or her. A learning difficulty means that the child has significantly greater difficulty in learning than most children of the same age or that the child has a disability that needs different educational facilities from those that the school generally provides for children.
The Additional Learning Needs Code for Wales 2021 (the ALN Code) and regulations came into force on 1 September 2021 to ensure children and young people aged 0 to 25 can access additional support to meet their needs that is properly planned for and protected, with learners at the heart of the process.
Children are moving from the special educational needs (SEN) system to the additional learning needs (ALN) system in groups over 3 years, to ensure enough time for nurseries, schools, pupil referral units and local authorities to discuss the support needed and to prepare plans.

School Action
When a class or subject teacher identifies that a pupil has SEN they provide interventions that are additional to or different from those provided as part of the school’s usual curriculum.
School Action Plus
When the class or subject teacher and the SEN Co-ordinator are provided with advice or support from outside specialists, so that alternative interventions additional or different to those provided for the pupil through School Action can be put in place.
Statemented
A child has SEN if he or she has learning difficulties which requires special educational provision to be made for him or her. A learning difficulty means that the child has significantly greater difficulty in learning than most children of the same age or that the child has a disability that needs different educational facilities from those that the school generally provides for children.
Individual Development Plans
Individual Development Plans (IDPs) are statutory plans created under the Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018, which came into force on 1 September 2021. A learner may have either a school maintained IDP or a local authority maintained IDP.
Please note that data published on additional learning needs (ALN) and special educational needs (SEN), English as an Additional Language (EAL) and ethnic minority pupils is based on pupils of statutory school age only.
Details of pupils' stages of English as an Additional Language (EAL) are surveyed annually by specialist Ethnic Minority Achievement Services (EMAS) or EAL services within local authorities. Pupils learning EAL in schools, including those who are in receipt of support by the specialist EMAS or EAL Services, are categorised 'A' to 'E'. Progression from stage A to stage E can take up to 10 years and achieved in different ways and at different rates.
The data displayed here shows the percentage of pupils categorised as ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’. Please see the glossary for an explanation of EAL categories.

This shows the percentage of pupils in the school that recorded their ethnic background as anything other than "White-British". Excludes pupils for whom no data were available and those who explicitly stated that they did not want their schools to record a category for them.

Staff
The PTR is calculated by dividing the full time equivalent of pupils on roll in schools by the full time equivalent of qualified teachers (Headteachers, Deputy Heads and other qualified teachers). The lower the figure, the more teachers there are per pupil.

This shows the full time equivalent of qualified teachers (head teachers, acting head teachers, deputy head teachers, assistant head teachers and other qualified teachers). The full time equivalent of part-time teachers expresses the teachers' service in hours as a proportion of a school week: 32.5 hours for maintained schools.

Finance
These figures show the amount of funding provided, on average, per pupil in each school. They are calculated by dividing the overall school budget by pupil numbers. It only includes money that has been passed to the school. Some budget is retained by the local authority (LA) to fund services that are provided centrally, such as school transport. The share of the budget retained by each local authority is different across Wales and therefore a comparison with a Welsh average would not be appropriate.

The local authority data does not include elements of funding which were not allocated to individual schools at the start of the financial year.
These figures represent the level of financial reserves carried forward at the end of each financial year (rounded to the nearest £1,000). A positive figure indicates that the school is carrying forward some reserves to the following financial year. A negative figure indicates that the school is in deficit.

Benchmarking
Benchmarking compares the outcomes of one school against others who have similar levels of pupils with free school meals (FSM). FSM is regarded as the main indicator of social deprivation in schools. This allows a comparison of the performance of a school against others who are in the same FSM category, and who might therefore have a similar intake of pupils from deprived backgrounds. For the purposes of these charts, schools have been grouped together with other schools that have similar levels of free school meals. For example:
The green section represents the highest performing 25% of schools with similar levels of free school meals to this school. Therefore, if the data point for this school is in the green area, its attendance levels are higher than many other schools with similar levels of pupils from deprived backgrounds.
The red section represents the lowest performing 25% of schools with similar levels of free school meals to this school. Therefore if the data point for this school is in the red area, its attendance levels are lower than many other schools with similar levels of pupils from deprived backgrounds.
