Where the schools are
Sheffield is marked; each dot is a school whose leavers went there. Darker blue means more of the school’s Year 11 leavers stayed in education.
About this page
School counts come from each school’s published leavers’ destinations and from the university’s own Freedom of Information response, matched by name or UKPRN; each row links to its source. A school’s figure counts places accepted in the summer, the university’s counts students registered in the autumn, and the DfE’s sustained-destination statistics on school pages are a third measure. Facts about the university are from its website (source). The University of Sheffield name and logo are trade marks of the university, shown to identify it; sch.today is independent of the university.
