The Grey Coat Hospital - A Level Results Summer 2025
It has been wonderful to celebrate the achievements of our summer 2025 cohort of A-Level students today, who between them have achieved the best public examination results the school has seen since 2018. These results are a testimony to the expert teaching, pastoral care and guidance given by our staff; the hard work and resilience of our students; and the unwavering support of our parents and carers.
We are also delighted that the school’s A Level results continue to be above the averages of all secondary schools in London and schools nationally. While the percentage of top grades has risen nationally, too, the exams regulator OFQUAL states: “It is important to emphasise that while each year’s cohort of students will be slightly different, the standard of work needed to get a particular grade remains comparable with previous years.”
Please note that all results are provisional and may change after re-marks.

A*/A grades 41.7% (40.9% in 2024) – 31.1% in all London schools in 2025, 28.2% in England 2025

In total, we had 140 students in Year 13 and 126 applied for a university place. Seventeen Year 14 and Year 15 students also applied to university through us, leading to a total of 143 applications. Our students will again take their places at a range of excellent and sought-after institutions, with 71 students so far securing courses at highly competitive Russell Group universities including seven places at Oxford and Cambridge. Three students are going on to high-quality apprenticeships and five students have secured art foundation places. The remaining students will take planned gap years.
We have had many amazing individual successes to celebrate, all of which are rooted in the students’ consistently excellent effort and a strong desire to achieve their personal best; and some of which were achieved in the face of considerable personal challenges.
The following students deserve a special mention for their exceptional academic results in comparison to the national picture. In the whole of England in 2025, only 3,890 students (2.1%) who took three A Levels managed to attain three A* grades; and only 5.2% of all A-Level students took more than three A Levels. Below, you can see all those GCH students who achieved at least three A grades in their A level subjects.
