What the data says
Of the 120 pupils who finished Year 11 at Stratford Girls' Grammar School in 2023, 95% stayed on in Stratford Girls' Grammar School’s own sixth form (Warwickshire average 43%), 2% went to a further education college and none started an apprenticeship.
Among the 115 students who left the sixth form in 2023, 76% went to university (Warwickshire 35%, England 37%), and 69% of level 3 students progressed to one of the most selective universities, against 19% nationally.
GCSE results in 2025 were well above the national picture: Attainment 8 of 80.6 against 46.1 across England and 48.0 in Warwickshire, with 100% of pupils getting grade 5 or above in both English and maths (England 45%) — as a selective grammar school, Stratford Girls' Grammar School admits pupils by test at 11, which drives these figures.
German is unusually popular at GCSE: 27% of the year group took it, against 5% of pupils across England.
