Pupils were awarded grades based on their demonstrated achievement in their chosen subjects, constituting many hours of work and preparation for questions and essays, coursework, in-school tests and mock exams. Oundle’s grading policy, the grades themselves and our chosen evidence were scrutinised and approved by the examination boards, with no changes made to procedures or decisions.
At A Level, 35% of grades awarded were at A* or equivalent, with 68% A*A and 91% A*–B. A high proportion of pupils immediately secured a place at one of their chosen universities, with all Oxbridge candidates confirming their offered places on the day of results.
