Students at Latymer Upper School are high achievers and do excellent academically and in their own personal development, which comes under the school ethos of pursuing excellence in all activities with discipline. In 2016, 76% of students gained an A*/A at A level, and 87% at GCSE. The results from Latymer are amongst the highest in the UK every year, which is why it is such a competitive school to gain a place for.
