Wellington College: comparable sixth form figures, 2019

Qualification only

No figure

A* or equivalent, all sixth-form exams · Comparable figure · our calculation

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

The original grades

A level: 23.6. Subjects and grades

IB HL: no full grade table in this record

This year’s exams: A levels and IB Higher Level.

We know because the government’s tables confirm it.
