Our children are prepared for Common Entrance and individual entry tests to senior schools and Duncombe has an excellent record of scholarship achievement. A number of our pupils also transfer to maintained secondary schools, reflecting the flexibility of a Duncombe education.

Where ever their ultimate destination, a child from Duncombe is considered an asset. Every year we receive many appreciative comments and glowing reports from senior schools about Old Duncombians. We are proud of our pupils' accomplishments and of the confirmation that a child's time at Duncombe prepares them fully for the next stage of their educational careers.
