GCSE top grades (A* or 9–8) · Comparable figure · our calculation

Dulwich printed percentages without the number of grades, so we cannot combine its different qualifications. We don’t have Dulwich’s whole-school lettered GCSE figure for 2019.

The original grades

A*–G: no full grade table in this record

9–1: 65. Subjects and grades

This year’s exams: A*–G GCSEs and 9–1 GCSEs.

We know because the government’s tables confirm it.
