Note
descriptive or lower-bound figures are recorded as the school printed them and are not charted · Centre-assessed grades year. 14 boys with 10+ grade 9s; 30 with 9+ grade 9s. NB the 2019 post gives 39.2% grade 9 in 2019, so 'third consecutive year ... well over 40%' should be read as the school's own characterisation.
