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 Pre-U or IB figures for 2022.

The original grades

A level: 39.2. Subjects and grades

Pre-U: no full grade table in this record

IB HL: no full grade table in this record

This year’s exams: A levels, Pre-U and IB Higher Level.

We know because the government’s tables confirm it.

As recorded

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

A*–A or equiv.: reason: Pre-U: DfE’s 2022 table lists one Pre-U Chinese entry with a teacher-assessed result from 2020 or 2021, counted in 2022. If no Pre-U was sat that year the year is A level only, which waits for the owner’s ruling on Eton 2024, the same question.; IB Higher Level: no whole-school IB Higher Level figure is held
A*–A or equiv.: reason codes: comparable figure not computable
A* or equiv.: reason: Pre-U: DfE’s 2022 table lists one Pre-U Chinese entry with a teacher-assessed result from 2020 or 2021, counted in 2022. If no Pre-U was sat that year the year is A level only, which waits for the owner’s ruling on Eton 2024, the same question.; IB Higher Level: no whole-school IB Higher Level figure is held
A* or equiv.: reason codes: comparable figure not computable
A*–B or equiv.: reason: Pre-U: DfE’s 2022 table lists one Pre-U Chinese entry with a teacher-assessed result from 2020 or 2021, counted in 2022. If no Pre-U was sat that year the year is A level only, which waits for the owner’s ruling on Eton 2024, the same question.; IB Higher Level: no whole-school IB Higher Level figure is held
A*–B or equiv.: reason codes: comparable figure not computable
A level: entries: unknown (no entry count printed)
Pre-U: why no figure: DfE’s 2022 table lists one Pre-U Chinese entry with a teacher-assessed result from 2020 or 2021, counted in 2022. If no Pre-U was sat that year the year is A level only, which waits for the owner’s ruling on Eton 2024, the same question.
IB Higher Level: why no figure: no whole-school IB Higher Level figure is held
