Magdalen College School: comparable GCSE figures, 2019
Qualification only
No figure
GCSE top grades (A* or 9–8) · Comparable figure · our calculation
MCS Oxford printed percentages without the number of grades, so we cannot combine its different qualifications. We don’t have MCS Oxford’s whole-school lettered GCSE figure for 2019.
The school’s figure: 81.6% · The school’s combined figure, as published. There is no comparable figure to compare it with.
This year’s exams: A*–G GCSEs and 9–1 GCSEs.
We know because only the school’s own records show it.

How the figure is calculated
The number of entries at or above the band, across every exam system, divided by all the entries. We never average two percentages.
The results used in the calculation
- A*–G: no usable figures this year. Record details says why.
