Note
descriptive or lower-bound figures are recorded as the school printed them and are not charted · School-written exhibitor text (Independent Schools Show) describing 2018 ('this year'; the same text dates destinations 'In 2018'). '28 boys ... three or more A* or equivalent grades' - 'or equivalent' indicates Pre-U D1/D2 counted alongside A level A*. 'three quarters achieved grades of ABB or better' (denominator: boys). Year attribution rests on the internal dating; confidence P/S.

Harrow Public Examination Results 2018 · A-Level Results paragraph

Checked 2026-09-06. Original school article dated 1 December 2018, after some early marking reviews. It states more than 31% A* and 65% A*/A. The existing exhibitor-text version says above 64% A*/A; the versions are compatible but the timing/precision difference is unresolved. They are preserved separately, without changing the original register. The 28-pupil measure includes A* or equivalent grades.
