According to EduBase, SHHS last year had 92 girls in the last year of GCSE and only 54 girls in the first year of sixth form.

Given that SHHS claim to admit at least a few students at sixth form, more than 30 girls, or 1/3 of their GCSE students, must be leaving each year for a different sixth form. This appears to be a much larger fraction than at SPGS, NLCS, CLSG, etc.
Does anyone have information about where these 30+ girls are going and why so many are leaving? I'm told that many girls and/or parents seek a coed environment at that age but, again, it seems like other top London girls day schools hang on to far more of their students.
