What the data says

Harington School 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 177 students who left the sixth form in 2023, 60% went to university (Rutland 60%, England 37%), and 51% of level 3 students progressed to one of the most selective universities, against 19% nationally.

A level grades average B-, above the England average of B-; 26% of students achieved AAB or better including two facilitating subjects (England 18%). The largest A level subjects are Mathematics, Psychology and History.
