Downe House: university destinations

1. What it counts: Applications to Oxford from this school Applications: 17 Where it’s from: Original university annual dashboard checked on 15 October 2026 Worth knowing: Annual cycle selected in the public university dashboard, then the named school row read visually. The dashboard cells shown in grey are withheld under disclosure control; they are not zeros and no hidden value is inferred. Applications are associated with the UCAS apply centre, not necessarily the school’s current leaver cohort. Offers and acceptances are separate outcomes, not university destinations. How the source defines it: Exact applications and offers from the same annual university source row; any offer rate is calculated from these inputs.
