Percentages are rounded to 0.1. </p> <p>Note: Within 'Others' there was at least one speaker from 118 different languages. </p> <p><a href="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/languages-pupils-msoa.xls">MSOA data</a> (Excel) </p> <p>Middle Super Output Area (MSOA) data is shown in the spreadsheet by the range which it belongs to in the map.
