Teaching & academics

At GCSE, three-quarters of grades fall in the 9-7 range, a strong showing at the top end. The sixth form spans a broad sweep of subjects, from Further Maths and the sciences to Economics, Psychology, Media Studies and PE, with just over half of A-level entries graded A*-A and 85% reaching A*-B. Alongside GCSE and A-level, the school offers BTEC and the EPQ, giving pupils more than one academic route. Some headline measures, such as the published Attainment 8 figure, sit well below national averages and warrant a direct conversation with the school about how their cohort is assessed.
