• Compared to 2007-08, the proportion of 19 year-olds lacking Level 3 qualifications has fallen everywhere.

In seven boroughs, at least a third of 5 year olds got a low score in the school readiness assessment.

• There are very big differences between boroughs: four times as many 5 year olds attained a low development score in Brent as in Richmond.

Overall, children in Inner London are more likely to attain a low development score at 5 years old than children in Outer London or the rest of England.

• However, poor children in London do better on this assessment than poor children in the rest of England.

• Boys are much more likely than girls to attain a low development score.

The proportion of 16 year olds not getting 5 GCSEs at A*-C is lower in London than the England average

• The proportion of 16-year-olds getting fewer than five A*-C GCSEs has decreased in all London boroughs since 2007.

The proportion of 16 to 19 year-olds not in education, employment or training (NEET) has risen sharply in Outer London in the last decade.

Inner London NEET rates have fallen slightly, from 14% to 12%.

Rising rates elsewhere mean Inner London is now little different from the majority of English regions.

Among pupils not entitled to free school meals, there are only small differences in the proportion not getting five GCSEs by ethnicity.

By contrast, among pupils eligible for free school meals, the proportion who are not White British not getting five GCSEs is only half the proportion for White British pupils.

This pattern is by no means unique to London - White British pupils on free schoool meals right across England are more likely to lack 5 GCSEs than other pupils are.

Results at age 11 are better in London schools than in the rest of England, including for pupils on Free School Meals.

At age 11, girls attain better than boys throughout the country for any given free school meal status.

There seems to be a "London effect" for children on free school meals that improves overall performance.

The proportion of 16-year-olds in Inner London achieving fewer than five GCSEs has come down from 15% to 8% over the ten years to 2009 - the biggest fall of any English region.

Outer London now has a lower proportion of pupils falling short of this standard than any other region in England.

Educational attainment at age 11 is higher in London than in the rest of England, and has been improving faster.

More than a quarter of 11 year olds in London do not reach expected standards at the end of primary school.

The proportion of 11 year olds not reaching expected standards in Hackney is twice as high as those in Richmond.

Children from more deprived backgrounds in London are more likely to reach required levels of educational attainment than similarly poor children in the rest of England.

• At age 11, a lower proportion of children receiving free school meals in Inner London (34%) and Outer London (40%) do not attain key skills in Maths and English than similarly disadvantaged pupils elsewhere (47%).

• At age 16, a lower proportion of children receiving free school meals do not get 5 good GCSEs in Inner London (31%) than in Outer London (35%) or the rest of England (44%).

• However a higher proportion of children not receiving free school meals in Inner London, both boys (28%) and girls (22%), do not get 5 good GCSEs than pupils elsewhere in England (24% of boys, 18% of girls).

• By 2010, a lower proportion of 19 year olds lacked Level 3 qualifications (2 A levels or equivalent) in Inner London (48%) and Outer London (43%) than in the rest of the country (50%).

• The eight boroughs with the highest proportions of 19 year olds lacking a Level 3 qualification are in the Inner East & South and Outer East & North East.
