Top 100 Schools by GCSE Results

Below are the top 100 privately funded schools in the UK by GCSE results. This table is based on publicly available exam data and is updated each year as soon as new GCSE result data is made public by the ISC (Independent Schools Council) and schools themselves have updated them after appeals to examination boards. My Top Schools does not guarantee accuracy as there may be a lag between updates made to the site and reality. Click the name of a school to visit their profile.
