All-girls schools dominate the top tier (e.g., Immaculate, St. Hilda’s, Westwood), while boys' and co-ed schools tend to rank lower. This trend may highlight differences in school culture or academic focus.
Urban schools such as Campion and Wolmer’s Girls perform strongly, suggesting a possible urban advantage in access to resources. Rural schools appear more often in the mid to lower tiers.
