What is distinctive about applying to Worth

Worth publishes GCSE results, shown in the results table. Its sixth-form figures combine A level, IB and BTEC grades, so we have not shown them as A level results.

The school's pages list slightly different scholarship subjects: design and technology appears on some pages and not others.
