A few weeks ago, I wrote a piece about the relationship between attainment at GCSE and KS5 subject choice.
As you’d expect, I found that pupils who did well in GCSE maths were more likely to go on to study maths at A-Level. And the same was true – to a lesser extent – for GCSE English and A-Levels in English literature or English language.
But (channelling Carrie Bradshaw) I couldn’t help but wonder – what about pupils who get strong grades across the board?
