Exam Results
2025-26 The DfE changed performance tables in 2014 to exclude IGCSEs and re-sits. As a result, this school's Attainment 8 score may appear lower than expected. Independent schools whose pupils sit IGCSEs or other non-approved qualifications are particularly affected and may appear to be performing worse than they actually are.
