The 2026 ISC return gives weighted GCSE/IGCSE grade totals, while the school’s website still says GCSE details are to follow. These are separate publications. There are still gaps in the earlier results and in our account of which qualifications the school used.
Start with the same qualification, grade band and years for both schools. That gives you a fairer reading of their results. Whether your child would enjoy and thrive in either school needs a wider conversation.

1,443 records from 1992 to 2026: results for A level, GCSE/IGCSE and Other qualifications (4 qualifications in all), and 387 university records. Taking the school’s figures as published, the longest run on one unchanged definition is A-level grades at A*, 2024–2026 (2 years). The record above counts its years on our combined annual figure, which joins qualifications and grading systems by a stated rule.
How many years each measure has, with a reason where a comparison is unavailable.
Years in each measure’s span. Columns overlap, so don’t add them up.
We have figures for 12 years, but they do not count the same thing consistently enough to draw a comparison: covers a different group from the school-wide series.
The last column counts years in the span with no record at all, not zero results. A year can have figures and still not be comparable; those are counted in the columns to its left.
What we’ve searched
Across the years and categories below, we have a figure for 146 of 296 entries, searched without finding one for 125, haven’t searched 4 yet, and 21 didn’t apply. The search for missing figures is still open. A year without a figure isn’t a zero, and isn’t evidence the school published nothing.
Figure found — We have a figure for this year, with the document it came from.
Found, not compared — We have found a figure, but cannot establish exactly what it counts or whom it covers. It stays out of comparisons until that is clear.
No figure yet — We haven’t found a figure for this year. The notes below say where we looked and whether the search remains open. A missing figure does not mean the school published nothing.
Not researched yet — We haven’t searched for this year yet, so a blank here tells you nothing about what the school published.
Did not apply — This qualification or outcome didn’t exist, or wasn’t offered here, in this year, and we have a source that says so.
