Jersey · Education · 2017–2024

74.5% of Jersey pupils pass GCSE English and Maths.

Up from 65.8% in 2017, but the run has a three-year hole in it where the exams themselves stopped, and that matters more than the direction.

Government of Jersey Island Outcome Indicator 14, sourced from CYPES: the percentage of pupils achieving grade 4 or above in GCSE English and Maths. Nothing was published for 2020, 2021 or 2022, the years exams were cancelled or teacher-assessed and the department judged the results non-comparable, so the line breaks rather than bridging across them. Read the 2017 and 2024 endpointsas two readings on either side of a discontinuity, not as the ends of a trend. Jersey publishes no equivalent open series for school inspection judgements, which is what Guernsey’s Education tab is able to show.

Level 3 attainment

Average point score per entry in A level and equivalent qualifications, 2017–2025.

Axis starts at 31, not zero

Peaked at 35.6 points in 2018 and stands at 33.7 in 2025. Unlike the GCSE measure, this one has not recovered to its pre-2020 level. The same three-year publication gap applies.

Before school

The earlier checkpoints

Children reaching their developmental milestones at 2, and achieving the expected level of learning at 4 to 5. Both are tracked indicators in their own right, and both start well before anything a secondary-school policy can reach.

Axis starts at 30%, not zero

The 2-year-old measure has sat between 80% and 85% for the whole published run. The 4-5 measure has climbed from 46% to 64.6%, the largest sustained improvement anywhere in Jersey’s published education indicators, and one that predates every promise in the current Assembly.

How many, and where

Pupil numbers by sector, 2011–2024

Government and non-provided (independent/fee-paying) primary and secondary, plus special schools. 17% of Jersey pupils are in non-provided schools.

Government secondary rolls have grown for four straight years since 2020, from 4,953 to 5,258 in 2024, while government primary rolls have fallen over the same period. Set that against the population projections on the Economy tab. The primary fall is the leading edge of a smaller cohort working its way up.
