At St. John’s Preparatory & Senior School, our guiding motto—Res Ipsa Loquitur (“The Thing Speaks for Itself”)—is dynamically embodied by the extraordinary achievements of our students. We believe that a school’s ultimate measure lies in the destinations of its leavers, and our graduates consistently secure places at the world’s most elite higher education institutions. St. John’s maintains a proud, growing tradition of launching students into prestigious UK Russell Group and world top-10 universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, University College London (UCL), King’s College London, and the Universities of Manchester and Exeter. Reflecting our truly global academic caliber, our pupils also regularly transition to premier international institutions across the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia, including the University of California, the University of Illinois Urbana, the University of Alberta, Eindhoven University of Technology, and the University of Hong Kong. This unparalleled success is built upon decades of academic excellence; at GCSE, St. John’s consistently achieves a phenomenal 97% to 100% success rate in core subjects (benchmarked by pupils earning a grade 5 or higher in both English and Mathematics), vastly outperforming local borough and national averages year after year. Furthermore, our sixth-formers dominate in rigorous STEM disciplines at A-Level; in recent results, an astonishing 79% of Mathematics students achieved A*–A grades (compared to a national average of 42.5%), 100% achieved A*–B grades, and an incredible 84% of all Science exams sat resulted in top-tier A*–A marks. Choosing St. John’s means inspiring your child to reach world-class standards within a community where excellence is standard practice.
