News: Westminster Academy tops Sixth Form performance tables

Following our announcement on the Academy’s performance in the school league tables, Westminster Academy is delighted to report that the Sixth Form is now top of the tables in Westminster. The average point score per academic student at Westminster Academy was 874.7 points (equivalent to 2 A* and 1 A), more than 25 points ahead of the next state school in the borough. In 2014 88% of Sixth Form students gained A*-C grades, including 46% of students achieving the equivalent of A* and A grades. The high grades reflect the breadth of the IB, with students’ results being divided across six disciplines as opposed to the usual three subjects at A Level: English, Foreign Languages, Humanities, Science, Maths and the Arts or an elective.

The International Baccalaureate Diploma


The IB Diploma is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepare students aged 16-19 for success at University and life beyond. The programme is normally taught over 2 years and has gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading Universities.



International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme

The IBCP provides an exciting opportunity for "career orientated" students to gain a certificate which combines practical and academic skills – preparing you for success in the workplace or in further or higher education. The IBCP is a two year course taught in collaboration with industry partners, so for example, if you choose to study business, you could be receiving workplace guidance from leading blue chip companies.  We offer unparalleled opportunities for combining academic study with industry expertise all within the qualification which is equivalent to 400 UCAS points.
