- a The school's wording is '71.4 per cent of those' (of the A* to B grades) 'being A* and A'; recorded as printed.
- b A* share counts Pre-U equivalents with A level, as the school words it.
- c Pre-U equivalents counted with A level, as the school words it.
- d Exams were cancelled this year and the school awarded the grades.
- e Centre-assessed grades. A level table only; Pre-U results are in a separate table on the same page. The candidates figure covers all types of entry.
- f A level table only; Pre-U results are in a separate table on the same page. The candidates figure covers all types of entry.
- g A level (A2) table for the Upper Sixth; AS level is a separate table. Before 2010 A was the top grade, so A*–A is the share at A.
- h Share of entries at each grade, with A the top grade. The page's introduction says 'last year (2002)' but its column headings read 2003; recorded under 2003 as the headings print it. The first figure is the share at A, not A*.
Before 2010 there was no A* at A level, so for those years A*–A is the share at grade A and A*–B the share at A or B.
A dash means the documents we have found print no figure.
We have not found Tonbridge School’s A-level results for 2004 or 2009.

How to read these figures
- These are Tonbridge School’s own figures. We copy them as printed and do not recalculate or round them.
- A percentage is a share of the grades awarded, not of pupils, unless its row says otherwise.
- In 2020 and 2021 public exams were cancelled and schools awarded the grades.
- Tonbridge School’s own documents do not always agree for the same year: some count AS grades or Pre-U results with A levels, and some were printed before re-marks. Each row shows one document, and other published figures we have found are listed under the table.
- Some years are missing because we have not found a document from the school that gives them. We are still looking.
