Corrections

What we’ve corrected, and where sources disagree

42 corrections and 26 places where publications disagree, across 8 schools. Each correction shows what changed and why; each disagreement shows both figures and how it affects what we show.

What they add up to

Most corrections changed what a figure counts, not the number itself

They cover 8 schools and results from 1990 to 2026. 9 corrections changed a number: 6 up, 3 down. The largest was St Paul's School, 2015 final Oxbridge destinations, from 49 to 41 (C14). The other 32 changed what a figure counts rather than its value: a missing total added, two groups separated, or one publication chosen as the one to follow. 1 was later superseded by a newer correction and is counted in neither group (C11, replaced by C30).

A correction means we changed our record, and says why. A difference means two publications disagree; we show both and overwrite neither. Every one is listed below.

Oxbridge offers, accepted outcomes and destinations

Earlier: One table in the research compilation combined figures for different groups → Recorded: Applications, offers and acceptances for each UCAS admissions round shown separately from destinations and university entry years

Why: The Bible still mixes UCAS outcomes with destination counts and calendar-entry-year denominators. Primary rows by applying school control: 2020 is 135/44/43 and 2023 is 161/53/49; final destinations remain separately 43 and 50.

C16 · St Paul's School · 2024 ·

2024 final destinations

Earlier: 175-place prospectus table marked inferred → Recorded: official year-labelled 175-place PDF

Why: The official PDF explicitly identifies the 2024 leavers and upgrades the row from D/R to P; it also identifies EPFL rather than École Polytechnique.

2016 final destination total

Earlier: 189 itemized university-side places → Recorded: printed control total 190 with one explicit unresolved gap

Why: Both printed total controls are 190, while the itemized destination rows add to 189. The missing place is shown as unresolved and is not assigned to an institution.

Pre-U annual primary series

Earlier: partial companion-led rows → Recorded: direct official annual tables and signed-account headlines

C19 · Winchester College · 2003–2009 ·

A-level A and A–B series

Earlier: 2003 only: 559 entries and 73.2% A → Recorded: official school seven-year table; 2003 controls at 506 entries, 75.9% A and 93.3% A–B

Why: The school table is a complete later official series; the contemporary 559-entry population remains an explicit denominator conflict.

C20 · Winchester College · 2021 ·

2021 mixed A-level/Pre-U result

Earlier: absent or liable to be appended to pure Pre-U → Recorded: separate mixed-qualification TAG grading scale

Why: The official 450-entry distribution combines qualifications and cannot extend either pure trend.

C21 · Winchester College · 2024/25 ·

2024/25 US university offers

C22 · Winchester College · 2024/25 ·

2024/25 Oxbridge offer rate

Earlier: 21% → Recorded: official count 39 and cohort 156; 25.0% arithmetic ratio labelled as unvalidated

Why: The official page publishes no offer rate and does not explicitly guarantee identical prior-leaver treatment in numerator and cohort.

The publications behind it

C23 · Winchester College · 2019 ·

Pre-U D1–M2

Earlier: 92.7 → Recorded: 92.6

university offers, admissions, matriculations and destinations

Earlier: One table labelled as destinations, although its rows counted different outcomes → Recorded: Earlier university outcomes identified by what each counts, with final destinations shown separately

Why: Offers and admissions are leading/selection outcomes; final destinations remain separately typed and published rounding is never normalised.

C25 · Winchester College · 2026 ·

2026 Oxbridge offers

GCSE/IGCSE subject-entry denominators

Earlier: 2017, 2018 and 2021 blank; 2020 approximately 1,178 → Recorded: 2017 1,359; 2018 1,283; 2020 1,189; 2021 1,258

Why: Official annual evidence supplies the missing exact denominators. The final 2020 subject table supersedes the earlier approximate OCR, and separately reported Additional Mathematics entries are not added.

A-level and IB candidate and grade-entry denominators

Earlier: grade percentages held without candidate or entry denominators → Recorded: route pupils, actual A-level takers, A-level entries, IB candidates, IB Higher-Level entries and unique combined cohorts encoded wherever printed

Why: The school result tables supply exact denominators. Combined entries remain explicitly scoped to A-level entries plus IB Higher-Level entries, and the 2024/25 IB crossover pupil is not double-counted in the combined cohort.

C28 · King's College School Wimbledon · 2017–2025 ·

GCSE/IGCSE candidate and subject-entry denominators

Earlier: 2018 and 2019 coverage strings only; later candidate and entry totals absent → Recorded: candidate and total-entry counts added for every exact modern year held, with numbered/lettered splits and exclusions typed separately

Why: The candidate denominator is distinct from the grade-entry denominator. The 2018 total excludes 88 Additional Mathematics entries; 2017 has a pupil count but no safely recoverable exact entry total.

The publications behind it

historic examination candidate and entry counts

Earlier: Earlier reports containing counts that had not yet been included in the results → Recorded: primary newsletter counts and separately labelled secondary league-table cohort facts added without manufacturing missing denominators

Why: Only counts actually printed, arithmetically exact from the printed table, or explicitly typed as secondary/lower-bound evidence are encoded. Rounded percentages are not inverted into false exact totals.

2024 A-level A*

The 2024 A* share is 38.7%, from Eton’s re-signed table; the earlier 38.6% is superseded.

Earlier: 38.6 → Recorded: 38.7

Supersedes C11.

Why: Eton re-signed its 2024 A-level table on 22 Nov 2024 after one Music Technology grade was raised from A to A*. The table signed on 16 Oct 2024 (38.6%) is superseded; it is still online but no longer linked by the school.

Earlier: 44.8; 80.2; 95.4 → Recorded: 43.7; 80.1; 95.3

Why: The earlier figures count Eton’s A-level and Pre-U entries together (930 entries, Pre-U grades converted). The A-level series now uses Eton’s signed A-level table (870 entries); the combined figures stay in the record with their own label.

2025 GCSE/IGCSE top band

Eton’s 2025 GCSE figure now reads 61.9% at grade 9; it was shown as 61.9 in the “top band”, with no unit.

Earlier: 61.9 · top band, as published → Recorded: 61.9% at grade 9

Why: Owner decision E9 (23 Sep 2026). Eton’s final GCSE table for summer 2025 prints 1,707 grade 9s among 2,756 entries (61.94%) and 61.9 as the grade-9 share of its Cumulative% row, so the figure held as the “top band” is the percentage of entries at grade 9. The value is unchanged.

Earlier: 41.41; 83.68 → Recorded: 41.1; 83.7

Why: Owner decision, 29 Sep 2026: Eton’s 2011 A-level results rest on the table the school printed as its definitive results in its Admissions Booklet (December 2012), not on its earlier statistics sheet (809 entries).

Why: Owner decision, 29 Sep 2026: Eton’s 2011 GCSE/IGCSE results rest on the table the school printed as its definitive results in its Admissions Booklet (December 2012), not on its earlier statistics sheet (2,745 entries).

2010 Pre-U numerical reconstruction

Restore the previously published 2010 Pre-U reconstruction and its original numerical fields as explicitly modelled estimates. Retain the original school narrative and scoped FT/DfE evidence.

Earlier: The preceding release removed the previously published modelled numerical fields without owner authorisation. → Recorded: Original numerical reconstruction restored: 339 modelled entries; D1 18.9%; D1–D2 52.2%; D1–D3 79.1%; D1–M1 90%; D1–M2 95%, with model assumptions and inference labels.

Why: The preceding release removed modelled values without owner authorisation. Restoration preserves the existing estimates and their assumptions; it doesn’t show an exact historical grade census or make the estimates eligible for comparisons.

2022 A-level final distribution and qualification

Winchester's original 2022 A-level table restores the 477-entry denominator, lower cumulative bands and explicit A-level qualification.

Earlier: A-level denominator/lower bands omitted; one legacy artefact labelled the row A-level+PreU → Recorded: A-level; 477 entries; 98.3% A*–C; 99.8% A*–D; 100.0% A*–E

Why: The retained original is titled “2022 A-level Results”. Its total row is 477 entries (199 A*, 165 A, 77 B, 28 C, 7 D and 1 E) and its cumulative row is 41.7%, 76.3%, 92.5%, 98.3%, 99.8% and 100.0%. The public record already held the first three percentages but had a blank denominator and omitted the lower cumulative bands. A legacy mixed-qualification label is not applicable to this sheet.

2023 A-level final distribution

Winchester's original 2023 A-level table restores the 481-entry denominator and the complete final cumulative ladder.

Earlier: 481-entry denominator and lower cumulative bands omitted; note treated 40.7/77.9 as a same-series post-remark version → Recorded: 481 entries; 42.4/79.6/93.6/98.3/99.8/100.0%; earlier headline kept as a separate version with denominator unresolved

Why: The retained original totals 481 entries (204 A*, 179 A, 67 B, 23 C, 7 D and 1 E) and prints 42.4%, 79.6%, 93.6%, 98.3%, 99.8% and 100.0% cumulatively. Earlier results-day headlines of 40.7% A* and 77.9% A*–A are kept as a separate earlier publication version: 77.9% cannot be obtained by rounding any integer numerator over the final 481-entry denominator, so the site does not describe the difference as a same-denominator remark adjustment without evidence.

2022 GCSE cumulative distribution

Earlier: 9–6/9–5/9–4 absent from public row; one catalogue wrote 9–4 as 99.5%+ → Recorded: 9–6 97.1%; 9–5 98.8%; 9–4 99.5%

Why: The official table totals 1,210 numbered-grade entries and prints cumulative percentages 58.7%, 80.3%, 91.2%, 97.1%, 98.8%, 99.5%, 99.8%, 99.8%, 99.8% and 100.0%. Its separate Additional Maths row has 72 entries graded A–E/U-X and is not folded into the 1,210 denominator.

Why: The retained official subject table totals 1,337 entries (675 grade 9, 302 grade 8, 205 grade 7, 103 grade 6, 41 grade 5 and 11 grade 4) and prints cumulative 50.5%, 73.1%, 88.4%, 96.1%, 99.2% and 100.0%. Additional Maths is a separate 64-entry A–E table. Starred language rows include MP and JP candidates, as the source footnote states.

    How we use the 5 research versions
    1. v14.6: The seven-school summary, corrections after v14 and archived KCS and Westminster destination lists. Detailed annual tables omitted from the summary still come from earlier versions. A later second-hand figure does not replace a count checked against an original source in v13.9.
    2. v13 consolidated reader: Complete admissions-round series and detailed annual tables omitted from v14.6.
    3. v13.9 master + addendum: Winchester figures checked against original table images and grade counts, with the calculations based on them.
    4. v14.0–v14.2 addenda: Differences checked against the prospectus, GCSE corrections and evidence from league tables..
    5. legacy attachment: Earlier research kept so changes can be followed. It does not override a later correction checked against a source..
