Results & leavers' destinations

The Queen's School regularly ranks highly in all national academic league tables and is one of the leading schools regionally for academic performance. We are extremely proud to be the top-performing girls' school in the area.

However, impressive as exam data and league tables are, they are far from the whole picture. We add tangible value here at Queen’s. All Senior School pupils are independently tested at the start of their GCSE and A-level courses and set predicted grades, based on their understanding of the subjects and ability to express themselves. Thanks to our tailored approach to learning, many of our pupils outperform these initially projected grades by quite some way. It is likely then that some of our top-performing pupils would not have achieved their excellent results had they studied elsewhere.

Every year Queen’s pupils achieve some of the best A-level results in the country. The school’s A* rate is excellent and girls go on to study at prestigious universities on very competitive courses both in the UK and abroad. Our GCSE results are also consistently outstanding.
