St George’s British International School is delighted to announce an outstanding performance by the Class of 2024 following the release of the summer 2024 International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) results.
A total of 56% candidates scored 36 points or higher, with an impressive 36% of students gaining 38 points or above out of a maximum of 45. The average IB score achieved is five points above this years’ global average score of 30.3. Around one third of students obtained a bilingual Diploma.
The cohort achieved a 97% IB Diploma pass rate with all students in the class of 2024 graduating with High School Diploma accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), making them the first class in St George’s history to achieve this additional qualification.
Mary-Clare Startin, Vice Principal & Head of Senior School, said: “We are bidding farewell to a remarkable graduating class this year. They have finished their time at St George’s with impressive examination results and will be embarking on studies at top institutions in Europe, the UK and the US but they will also be remembered for their wide range of talents beyond the classroom. This Year group is made up of tournament-winning football teams and national sports stars, some of the school’s most distinguished musicians, dramatists and artists and this cohort has achieved the highest number of Gold Duke of Edinburgh Awards and completed the most CAS hours of any graduating class. However, beyond that, they are a group of students who are known for their open-minded and open-hearted approach to school life, their peers and the wider community: for all their achievements they have remained humble, grateful and hugely likeable. We shall miss them next year, but are confident that they are going to achieve great things at university and beyond."
The Class of 2024 have collectively received over 250 offers of admission from institutions around the world, including Cambridge, Imperial, UCL, Stanford, Caltech, Chicago and Bocconi. Pupils are now undertaking the process of verifying their offer conditions and acceptances, and we look forward to sharing further details of the next destinations of our Class of 2024.
