What the data says
Warblington School has no sixth form. Of the 112 pupils who finished Year 11 there in 2023, none moved to a sixth form college, 77% to a further education college and 4% started an apprenticeship.
GCSE results in 2025 were well below the national picture: Attainment 8 of 36.4 against 46.1 across England and 45.5 in Hampshire, with 34% of pupils getting grade 5 or above in both English and maths (England 45%).
Photography is unusually popular at GCSE: 30% of the year group took it, against 6% of pupils across England.
As an 11–16 school, Warblington School is judged on where pupils go at 16 rather than on A level results.
