How we built it

The number of entries at or above the band, across every exam system, divided by all the entries. We never average two percentages.

A*–A or equiv.: A level A*–A 455–460 + Pre-U D1–D3 202–203 = 657–663 of 750 entries (87.6–88.4%: the school’s rounding leaves this much room)
A* or equiv.: A level A* 237–242 + Pre-U D1–D2 139–140 = 376–382 of 750 entries (50.1–50.9%: the school’s rounding leaves this much room)
A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 514–518 + Pre-U D1–M2 202–218 = 716–736 of 750 entries

The records it is built from
