What was checked

Eton’s Admissions Brochure 2013–14 prints the school’s “definitive 2012 results”: 2,118 A* and 548 A grades of 2,778 GCSE/IGCSE entries (76.24% and 95.97%), which its Cumulative statistics row prints as 76.2% and 96.0%. The school’s earlier statistics sheet counts 2,117 A* and 547 A grades of 2,778 entries. Compared row by row: English Language A* 142 → 143; Physics C 2 → 1; History A/B 48/11 → 49/10; totals A* 2,117 → 2,118, A 547 → 548, B 94 → 93, C 20 → 19. Its counts give 99.32% A*–B. The owner decided on 29 Sep 2026 that the definitive table is the year’s result; the earlier sheet stays on record as the superseded version.

Can I compare it?

A*, A*–A and A*–B: yes, with another school’s figure for the same year, counting legacy grade entries on the same grading scale (GCSE / IGCSE A*–G).
