The source added the following information on methodology: "Fieldwork for the 2020 study was forced to end before it was complete, as all British schools were closed during the scheduled fieldwork period due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Fieldwork in Wales was scheduled to take place at a date after the lockdown restrictions came into force so Welsh pupils are not included in this year's study."
