I believe the percentage of A*-A listed for JAGS, 53%, is incorrect. How did you get this figure? My daughter goes there, and in email we received from the school it said that the percentage of A*-A was 73%.
Highgate A levels is incorrect too, its listed 40% at A* and 78% at A
it’s not “incorrect” as they initially reported 38% and 76%, they will have updated the numbers following remarks – this will happen at all the schools over the coming weeks. Especially independent schools tend to submit many entries for remarks if there is any chance of an upgrade.
JAGS A*-A A level results was 73%. 52% was the percentage of pupils who achieved straight A*-A
Thanks – this is being updated. It’s because of how they reported. They wrote 35% of grades are A* and next to it in the same format 52% but in small print saying that’s the share of students, very odd way of reporting the stat, we have updated the table now.
Henrietta Barnett School 41% A* and 81% A*/A
hello, Grey Coat Hospital A*A is 39,7% not 38.7
Consider a school with the same cohort size, where students take an average of 3.4 subjects each. With 45% achieving A* grades, all else equal, the number of A* subjects remains nearly the same. However, this scenario results in 23 additional A grades shared across the remaining 50 students, significantly reducing the number of students receiving B or lower grades in their best 3 subjects.
Newham Collegiate Sixth Form and UCS Hampstead have released their 2024 A-Level results
Please also add Michaela Community School and Brampton Manor Academy’s results when released
Michaela never release percentage of A*-A grades unfortunately, they tend to only release % of A*-B which is less helpful. Same for Newham Collegiate and Brampton Manor as far as I can see.
Tiffin Girls A* 38.3%
Wimbledon High School reported that 50% of their A-level grades were A*, and 31% of students achieved 3 A* grades or more12. With an average of 3.1 subjects taken per student, it does seem like a significant portion of the top grades are concentrated among a smaller group of students. With the reminder of 69% of students share the 19% A* grades. It is a joke to see a school manipulate number of subject to make itself statistic look good.
There were only 87 pupils in the cohort. Assuming 3.1 A-levels per candidate, this suggests there were 135 A-Levels graded A*. About 80-85 would be the ones achieved by the 31% who achieved straight A*s, leaving about 50-55 A* grades for the remaining 60 students (almost one per person).
Because 3.1 subjects per student, that would also mean there is 54 B or lower grade present in the remaining 60 students. However, if consider a school with the same cohort size, where students take an average of 3.4 subjects each. With 45% achieving A* grades, all else equal, the number of A* subjects remains nearly the same. However, this scenario results in 23 additional A grades shared across the remaining 50 students, significantly reducing the number of students receiving B or lower grades in their best 3 subjects.
