What it counts

DfE’s 2011/12 subject rows give 1,191 GCSE/IGCSE entries for Winchester: 1,185 published (A* 816, A 292, B 65, C 9, D 2, E 1) and six hidden because their rows were small (1 English Literature IGCSE, 5 German GCSE). DfE also publishes the cohort’s total average point score, 471.4 for 144 pupils, which covers these entries and 12 AS Classics grades (9 A, 3 B). Its 55.9 points per entry and 8.4 entries per pupil confirm the scoring (A* 58 … E 28; an AS counts as two GCSEs, A 135, B 120). The published grades score 67,533, so the six hidden entries score 341.4–355.8: every one was an A* or an A, with at most one A (Wolfram Language). So A*–A (1,114), A*–B (1,179) and A*–C (1,188) are exact. A* is 821 or 822 (68.9% or 69.0%): no published figure separates them. On 45 comparable schools’ rates for the same two qualifications, five A*s and one A (821) is the likelier (76%), and the owner chose it (28 Sep 2026), so A* is shown as 68.9%. The population is DfE’s end-of-KS4 cohort.
