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.

More about 2023: government tables

Government (DfE) tables

DfE tables: pupils completing A levels in England; not the school’s own entry count. These count a different group from the school’s own tables, so they are never part of the comparable figure.

DfE’s table gives no grade for 3 of these entries (suppressed, or a 2020–21 teacher-assessed result counted in this year), so each figure is the range those entries allow.

  • A*–A or equiv.: 74.0–74.9% (A level A*–A 256 + Pre-U D1–D3 0–3 = 256–259 of 346 entries)
  • A* or equiv.: 31.8–32.7% (A level A* 110 + Pre-U D1–D2 0–3 = 110–113 of 346 entries)
  • A*–B or equiv.: 91.3–92.2% (A level A*–B 316 + Pre-U D1–M2 0–3 = 316–319 of 346 entries)
