Dulwich College: comparable GCSE figures, 2025

Qualification only

No figure

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

Dulwich’s governors report 2025 results in 9–1 bands, but we haven’t established whether those bands cover every GCSE and IGCSE pupils took. Government GCSE tables do not resolve the IGCSE question, so no combined top-grades figure is shown.

The original grades

9–1: 80. Subjects and grades

This year’s exams: 9–1 GCSEs only.

We know because the records disagree, and we have not yet resolved which qualifications they cover.

As recorded

The record’s own wording, where this page puts it in plainer words.

High grades: reason
The school’s governors report 9–1 bands only and say grading changed in 2019, and DfE lists 9–1 GCSEs only; but DfE’s tables cannot show IGCSEs, and the school still sat letter-graded GCSEs in 2018 and 2019. The owner is asked whether the school’s own statement confirms a 9–1-only year (the same question covers 2020 and 2021).
