Average grades of a 14 year old?

Is anyone willing the share with me what level their year 9 DC's are at?

My DD is mostly on level 5s with a level 6 in drama. I thought this was ok until my 11 year old nephew excitedly showed me HIS current grades in year 7 which were all level 5s. He's expected level 6a and one level 7 by the time he's in year 9.

So is he the exception or is that normal? if so, my DD is actually quite far behind Sad

I thought it was level 5 or 6 at end of year 9 - so average, guessing, would be 5a/6c at end of year 9.

I think 6b by the end of Y9 is nationally expected average. So 5a/6c at the beginning of Y9.
