A time‑series table for the selected metric for the chosen authority, allowing you to compare year‑to‑year movement and position versus peers. Use this to validate whether improvement/deterioration is persistent or driven by a single year.
Trend: Shows how the selected metric has evolved over time and how the authority
compares to its peer group. Use it to spot trend direction and volatility.
Distribution: Shows how many authorities fall into each value range for the selected
year. Bars are coloured green (good) to red (bad) for the metric; the selected authority is
highlighted in blue. Use the slider to change the year displayed.
The full underlying dataset across authorities and metrics. Use sorting/filtering to benchmark quickly, validate outliers, and understand the distribution behind any single authority's score or trend.
