The English Baccalaureate is a school performance indicator in England linked to the General Certificate of Secondary Education results. It measures students' attainment by calculating an average score from specified subject grades. The EBacc includes subjects which are studied in many subsequent university programmes.
In order to have an EBacc score for any student, they must take the following subjects at GCSE level:
English Language and English Literature
Mathematics
Either Combined Science or three
Either a Modern or an Ancient Foreign Language
Geography or History
