The 2024–2026 results relate to boys’ cohorts that left before girls were admitted. Current 11+ entry confirms places at both the Under School and Westminster Senior School. Pupils entering at 4+ or 7+ must still complete the relevant testing and interview before joining Westminster Senior School.

Scholarships and awards [2]

Four of the 2026 leavers joining Westminster received King’s Scholarships. This is not the total number of scholarship recipients across the whole leaving cohort.
