To calculate the percentage increase from 2013 to 2014, we need to find the difference in the number of students between the two years and express it as a percentage of the starting number of students in 2013.
The difference in the number of students between 2013 and 2014 is 280 - 250 = 30 students.
To express this as a percentage of the starting number of students in 2013, we divide the difference by the starting number and multiply by 100:
(30 / 250) * 100 = 0.12 * 100 = 12%
Therefore, the percentage increase from 2013 to 2014 is 12%.
In 2013, there were 250 students at Highmoor Sixth Form.
In 2014, there were 280 students.
Work out the percentage increase from 2013 to 2014.
