Chris Woodhead says about league tables:"It is head teachers who cannot cope with the pressure such tables, quite rightly, bring. It is easy to see why some schools have chosen to withhold information. Their examinations results are, frankly, embarrassing. It makes sense to hide them from prying eyes. Or so their head teachers might think."
However, we need to explore how academic league tables' guidelines are set, and more to the point, who should be setting them?
