Westminster School: comparable sixth form figures, 2021

No figure

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

Grades were set by teachers, and which exams were sat isn’t settled: government entry lists suggest Pre-U alongside A levels.

Grades as sat

A level: no full grade table in this record

Pre-U: no full grade table in this record

This year’s exams: A levels and Pre-U.

We know because the records disagree, and the year waits for a ruling. Grades in 2020 and 2021 were assessed by schools and teachers, so these figures are left out of comparisons unless you ask for them.

Three figures for each grade band, never merged

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.

The records it is built from

A level: no usable figures this year. Record details says why.
Pre-U: no usable figures this year. Record details says why.

As recorded

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

A*–A or equiv.: reason: The school’s own records show A level only, but DfE’s 2020/21 sixth-form entries list Chemistry, Chinese, Classical Greek, English Literature, French, German, History, History of Art, Latin, Philosophy and Theology, Physics, Russian and Spanish at the school as “Other academic”, not as A level: the subjects it sat as Pre-U in the years either side. So 2021 was not A level only; but DfE does not name the qualification and no 2021 Pre-U results are held. The owner is asked to confirm the year as A level and Pre-U.
A*–A or equiv.: reason codes: awaiting owner ruling; assessment-regime exclusion
