What the data says
The Department for Education has not published where Redmaids' High School’s Year 11 leavers went next (destination measures are not published for independent schools), so this page relies on the school’s results and subjects.

Fine Art is unusually popular at GCSE: 49% of the year group took it, against 9% of pupils across England.
Where pupils went after Year 11
