WQ.352/2023
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR CHILDREN AND EDUCATION BY DEPUTY M.M. TADIER OF ST. BRELADE
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 25th SEPTEMBER 2023 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 2nd OCTOBER 2023
Question
“Will the Minister provide the number of entries for Modern Foreign Languages for GCSE for each of the last 5 years, including overall numbers broken down by school; and will she further provide the numbers as a percentage of overall school population?”
Answer
Please see table below. Background notes
The GCSE exam data that we hold is a record of results data and it is extracted from SIMS through a standard reporting module that provides pupil exam results. This module is predicated on the DFE’s reporting practice that records GCSE results for pupils in year 11 where the exam may have been taken in year 11 or a prior year.
The Department does not hold exam entry data in a form that enables this question to be answered without very significant manual intervention that would take longer than then the time that we have available.
See below breakdown of Exam results by year with the caveat that some of those results may refer to exams that were taken in a previous year.
The table displays data for % of Year 11 population, not overall school population, as the secondary schools cater for different age ranges such as 11-16, 11-18, 14-18.
The following subjects have been included:
• Dutch
• English for Speakers of Other languages
• French
• German
• Italian
• Mandarin
• Polish
• Portuguese
• Russian
• Spanish
