Notes and original wording (4)

Note: A level reported separately from Pre-U in 2019 (see Pre-U row). Autumn 2019 newsletter infographic prints 'AT A LEVEL, 28 A* 61 A*/A' (no % sign extracted) - see separate row. · 'HARROW IN NUMBERS' infographic in the Autumn 2019 newsletter; the PDF text layer detaches the '%' signs (raw lines: 'AT A LEVEL,' / '28 A* 61 A*/A' and 'AT GCSE,' / '64 9/8/A*' / 'Over %'), so the values are percentages of grades: 28% A*, 61% A*/A; GCSE 'Over 64%' at 9/8/A* (cf. 64.5% in the text). Year: the GCSE value matches the 2019 results; the same infographic's destinations panel is labelled '2018 LEAVERS'.
