Exam results
Westminster City School offers exceptional learning opportunities and strong pastoral support to ensure all our young people reach their potential.
GCSE Results Day 2025 saw some exceptional individual outcomes for students and a significant increase of 8% in the number of outcomes at Grades 9 to 7. Almost a 1/3 of grades were 7 or higher which is well above the national rate (22%). The standard pass (grades of 4 or above) rate was 80% across all GCSE grades for Westminster City School students which is well above the national average of 67%.
The school is above national averages in a key range of attainment outcomes based on figures from last year and we anticipate that, once all the national data is known, results will continue to be well above average for boys. There is therefore much to be proud of.
Within our Sixth Form, we offer challenging and rewarding A Levels that can lead to exciting further study opportunities and a range of future careers.
A Level Results Day 2025 saw significant improvement again. The outcomes for this year group are some of the best in the school’s history with the proportion of A* and A grades rising by 6% to 31%. The proportion of students securing top grades (A* to B) also rose by 5% to 64%. This is the fourth year in a row where outcomes have improved justifying the school’s reputation as a 6th Form providing transformational education in the heart of London.
Over a 60% of students have secured places at Russell Group or top 25 ranked UK Universities, and they will complete their studies in subjects ranging from Medicine to Mechanical Engineering, and from Computer Science to Law. Nine students have secured places at Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial College, London and University College London which all rank in the world’s top 10 universities. Other students hold places on competitive and prestigious degree apprenticeships.
