Teaching & academics
At A-level the results are strong, with 63% of grades at A*-A and 88% at A*-B, and the breadth of popular subjects spans economics, mathematics, psychology, history, the sciences and the humanities. Alongside GCSE and A-level, the school offers BTEC and the Extended Project Qualification, giving older pupils some flexibility in how they study. At GCSE, 71% of grades reach the 9-7 band; the published Attainment 8 figure of 18.9 and 0% grade 5+ in English and Maths sit well below national averages and are worth discussing with the school, as such figures can reflect how a small cohort's results are counted.
