Description
Lincolnshire County Council data on pupil attainment at Early Years Foundation Stage, Year 1 Phonics, and Key Stage 1, aggregated by gender and geographic area. The dataset is updated annually and includes figures for Wards, Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs), Districts, and Lincolnshire as a whole, based on pupils living and educated within the county.
