2022 Results
Exceptional results
2022 was an exceptional year for WSO Y13 students. As you can see, our extraordinary pass rates, in the first year of full exams since the Covid-19 pandemic started to ease, are something we are incredibly proud of. All pathways secured record results and we are excited to build on these in 2023. Our teachers’ hundreds of years of accumulative experiences across IBDP, A-level, and BTEC ensure that all students, across all pathways, are offered equal opportunity to succeed. These results helped us send students to all four corners of the globe to study medicine, law, engineering, physics, maths, journalism, design and so much more.
