Best-Schools and IB-schools publish the latest independent school League Tables

NEW YEAR, NEW SCHOOL LEAGUE TABLES, NEW TEAM MEMBER!

Greetings from the Education Advisers office in Kent

We hope 2024 has started well for you all. It has been an exciting start for us, having received some fantastic offers from the UK's top schools for our students, including, amongst others, Brighton College, Tonbridge, Oundle, Sevenoaks, Bede's, Ardingly, Haileybury and Bromsgrove. Our aim of course is always to find the best possible school for each student and it is a great privelege to work with so many wonderful families and schools. In 2023 we helped young people from over 30 countries secure offers from a wide range of schools.

Please browse through the latest private school league tables, compiled from 2023 A-Level, GCSE and IB results. These tables are widely recognised as the most accurate and transparent breakdown of private schools’ exam results. There are different tables, based on school type and curriculum, day or boarding, and co-ed or single-sex.

You can also view the top Global IB Schools on IB-schools.com which lists the highest perfoming IB schools outside the UK, as well as featuring a special table of schools with the most 'toppers' - IB students achieving the maximum 45-point score, a phenomenai accomplishment which we believe deserves recognition.

Please explore the tables most relevant to you, and delve into the profiles for each school. Please call us if you have queries about any specific school’s suitability for your child.

Do keep in mind that, whilst very interesting, league tables or exam results do not tell the whole story about how “good” a school is for your child. There are more important aspects to consider, and your child is better served by understanding how well a school fits their academic needs, aspirations, and personality. Our expert consultants are here to guide you through the process of finding the right school for your child.

Congratulations to the following schools for achieving first place for their 2023 exam results:

Top Co-educational Boarding School by A-levels:

Cardiff Sixth Form College

Top Boys’ Boarding School by A-levels:

St Paul's School

Top Girls’ Boarding School by A-levels and GCSE:

Wycombe Abbey School

Top IB Boarding School:

Cheltenham Ladies' College

Dukes Education Windsor Castle Event

In November our MD Mary was thrilled to be invited to an exclusive event at Windsor Castle hosted by Dukes Education, a group which includes some of the UK's most successful and popular schools and colleges, including Cardiff Sixth Form College, the top performing A-Level school in the country. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about Dukes from its inspirational Founder and Chairman, Aatif Hassan, and to spend time with colleagues from the world of international education in the most extraordinary setting. A highlight was the chance to hear the King's nephew, and the late Queen's eldest grandson, Peter Phillips, share anecdotes about life as a member of the Royal Family and talk about his own school days at Gordonstoun.

The guests were also treated to a special guided tour of St George's Chapel with a Knight of the Garter and the chance to watch the Changing of the Guards from within the castle grounds.
