Leavers' Destinations
The overwhelming majority of our Senior School students join our Sixth Form to study their chosen A level and Cambridge Pre-U courses.
The breadth and flexibility of the Walthamstow Hall curriculum, coupled with the expert teaching and encouragement that girls receive, enables them each to pursue the further education and career path that is absolutely right for them when they leave after Sixth Form. This individuality has been borne out by the Higher Education choices that our Sixth Form Leavers have been able to make.
In the five years since 2004 our Leavers have taken up places at 46 different universities and have taken up over 47 different courses.
