London A Level Results League Tables
Ashbourne students’ consistently outstanding A level exam results which have enabled us to remain in the top two of similar private high schools in London for many years. Ashbourne is also placed in the top 5% of UK schools and colleges that offer A levels as a result of the level of performance improvement we achieve, or ‘value added’. And more than half of our graduates go on to study at Russell Group universities, including Oxford and Cambridge.
A level performance table of comparative London Independent Schools for 2019, based on Department for Education figures published in March 2020.

For the first time this year, the tables also show the number of students who gain good grades – at least two As and a B – in so-called “facilitating subjects”. These are subjects that are commonly seen as a route into leading Russell Group universities.
The measure reflects achievement in maths and further maths, English literature, physics, biology, chemistry, geography, history and modern and classical languages.
Examination results are essential in appraising the achievements of private institutions, as well as those obtaining significant improvements with disadvantaged students. A level league tables are a useful resource and they provide a significant marketing tool for all schools. There are few schools, whether comprehensive, grammar or private, that do not select students in some way or other. For private schools and grammar schools, this selection begins at entry for students aged between 11 and 13. For state schools, under-performing GCSE students will be not be allowed to take up A levels but will be offered the choice of vocational qualifications such as NVQ or BTEC. Ashbourne Independent Sixth Form College, one of the best colleges in London, offers two year A level, 18 month A level and a one-year intensive A Level course programme, providing a wide range of subject choices.
