Summary Statistics for Schools in Scotland, No 5: 2014 Edition

This contains the results of the annual pupil census, annual teacher census, early learning and childcare data and school estates data.


As a result of the investment and reorganisation of the school estate, the proportion of schools in good or satisfactory condition has increased from 61 per cent in April 2007 to 83 per cent in April 2014. Taking into account the different number of pupils in each school, this has resulted in the number of pupils in good or satisfactory condition schools increasing from 61 per cent in April 2007 to 84 per cent in April 2014.

(1) See background notes 3.18 for more information on the condition ratings.

(2) The number of pupils on the school roll in the Pupil Census returns for the previous September, e.g. September 2012 for the April 2013 figures. So schools which opened after September but before April will have no pupils recorded for that school year.

(3) Figures for 2010 and 2012 were corrected in Summary Statistics for Schools in Scotland, No.4 ¦ 2013 Edition.
