Source: DfE england_ks4final.csv 2022/23 – 2024/25. National = RECTYPE 5 + 7 aggregate (DfE official). LA = RECTYPE 4 per-council average. v3.62.34 — bar lengths = value ÷ row-maximum; longest bar = best in row. v3.62.34.3 — benchmarks use latest year (2024/25), not 3-yr average, so comparison is apples-to-apples. Progress 8 omitted (not in bulk CSV; published England 2024/25 = −0.03).
