Abstract: This report looks at the provision of GCSE subjects in England in 2023. Provision in a subject is defined as the number or percentage of schools with at least one student taking the subject. It could be argued that this may not cover all the 'provision', since schools might offer to provide a subject but none of their students wants to study it. However, as there is no means of capturing this information, the report will only look at the provision based on the definition above. The report presents only the provision of GCSE subjects in schools with students taking GCSEs in 2023. Only GCSEs (9-1) full course (both single and double award) were counted for this report. Schools with at least 10 students taking GCSEs were included in the analysis. In this report, the level of provision is presented by the following school classifications: school type, school attainment, school deprivation level, school sex composition, and school size.
