Destination measures have been published for four years and show the proportion of pupils completing key stage 5 who have sustained[1] destinations at higher education institutions including Russell group universities. The latest data available are for students entering a destination in 2012/13. Destination measures data are published at:

https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-destinations

Destination measures data at Parliamentary constituency level were not published in the first year. Destinations data for pupils eligible for free school meals are published at national and Local Authority level but not for Parliamentary constituencies.

[1] Defined as October to March in the destination year.
