What the data says
RR6 is a 16–19 provider, so there is no Year 11 cohort: this page covers where its students went after 16–18 study and what they achieved.
Among the 241 students who left the sixth form in 2023, 71% went to university (Merton 70%, England 37%), and 29% of level 3 students progressed to one of the most selective universities, against 19% nationally.
A level grades average B-, around the England average of B-. The largest A level subjects are Mathematics, Sociology and Psychology.
Where pupils went after Year 11
