15% of test results still missing

In their latest update, ETS Europe, the firm responsible for delivering this year's delayed results, said that 84.4% of English results had now been published, up from 77% three days ago.
Five percent of maths and science results are also still missing.
In a statement, ETS vice president Andy Latham said: "ETS is working hard to ensure that the remaining few scripts are marked and results are made available as soon as possible."
He said it is hoped that the rest of the English results will have been reported within a week.
Mr Latham said marking for Key Stage 2, the tests for 11-year-olds was practically complete. "99% of all Key Stage 2 results are now available and we are in the process of entering results for the remaining few," he said.
The result of all national curriculum tests were due to be published on July 8 but were delayed by an administrative fiasco which affected millions of schoolchildren.
Many schools broke up for the summer holidays without receiving pupils' results, and there have been ongoing reports of problems with the quality of marking, scripts going missing and pupils being recorded as absent even though they took the tests.
Earlier this week, Mr Latham acknowledged the company is expecting higher levels of appeals this year.
He said: "In light of the publicity surrounding the delays in the return of results this year, we do anticipate an increase in the number of requests for a review of marking."
