n < 10We hide results for very small groups so that individual students cannot be identified. Results for fewer than 10 students are not published. When hiding one group would still let someone work out its number by subtracting the others from the total, we hide a second group as well. This is required to protect student privacy, and it is why some rows show more hidden values than you might expect.
