As per below link from sutton guardian, Wilson's is the top school in the country for a-level. However, I cannot find the news on times or any other website. Can someone demystify on what parameters was the evaluation done?
As mentioned in the Sutton Guardian article, the ranking came from an article and table printed in The Times on results day.
The Sutton Guardian article also states that "30 per cent of Wilson’s grades were an A* with 97 per cent being A*-B" and I assume these figures are the basis of the ranking.
Unfortunately, The Times article is behind a paywall so I have not been able to read it, but if anyone has access they may be able to provide further information.
Fundamentally, although these tables are satisfying for the schools, I wouldn't use them as the primary reason to choosing your preferred secondary school.
