In 2016, at GCSE, 91% of students achieved five or more A*-C grades, with 47.2% A*/A. At A levels, 78% of all students received A*/B.
Owing to its excellence, the school is oversubscribed. Some say that the chance of entry for non-Catholics is small, but all may apply. Strengths include maths, science and technology, plus sport and art. University entry is mostly to the Russell Group.
