A-level grades at A* · 2019–2026
Across 5 comparable years, 2019 to 2026, this school's published figure for A-level grades at A* ended 7.2 percentage points higher than it started (20.8% to 28%), which is no more than it moves between ordinary years. The record does not establish a direction.
What this is comparing, and what it cannot say
Compared: all 5 years for which this school has a chartable figure on this measure (2019–2026).
Across the years compared the figure ranges from 20.8% (2019) to 49% (2022).
These 5 years are not consecutive: 3 years inside the span (2020–2021 and 2024) hold no comparable figure, because the record has no matching publication, its sources disagree, or the figure was published on a different definition. A missing year is not a zero.
This describes published figures only. It does not explain why they moved: cohorts, entry policies, subject mixes and grading regimes all change underneath them, and none of that is in this record.
Year to year the figure typically moves about 13.9 percentage points, which is as much as it moved across the whole span. Two years picked from this series could show a rise or a fall depending only on which two.
GCSE / IGCSE entries at grade 9 · 2026
One year of GCSE / IGCSE entries at grade 9 is held (2026, at 38%), so the record shows no change over time.
What this is comparing, and what it cannot say
One figure cannot establish a direction. A second year on the same definition is what would make this a trend.
