Harrow’s outgoing Fifth Form achieved outstanding GCSE results, following a return to the sitting of public examinations this summer, with 75.1% of grades at 9, 8, or A*. 

Overall, 48% of grades were grade 9, with 16 boys gaining 10 or more grade 9s. Fifty-two boys attained 10 or more grades 9 or 8. 

At A-level, over 40% of grades were A*s. The A* rate exceeded the School’s average since the grade was introduced in 2010, bar the two non-examined years of 2020 and 2021. Over three-quarters of grades were either A*s or As. 

Six boys achieved five or more A* grades, with 20 boys gaining four or more A*s. Thirty-six boys gained three of more A*s and 102 boys gained three or more A*-A grades.

These strong A-level results have translated into a positive set of university outcomes. Some highlights from the 2022 university cycle include:

• Harrovians will be taking up places at six of the world’s top ten universities (QS World University Rankings) including Oxford, Cambridge, Stanford and Chicago;
• A record number of boys will take up places at a Russell Group university;
