BIS HCMC was excited and proud this week to host both a training event and best practise sharing workshop (JAWS) for science technicians from across Asia.
CLEAPSS is a UK organisation that's internationally renowned for supporting practical science education. It is regularly consulted by the UK government and its advice and documentation are recognised by both the Health and Safety Executive and the Department for Education.
CLEAPSS trainer and advisor Joanna Sacks visited BIS this week to deliver the training to eighteen science technicians visiting from all across Asia. As a result, technicians are now better equipped to find information and benefit from the excellent guidance CLEAPSS is able to offer our schools. Apart from updating and improving health and safety practise, technicians have been learning how better to support teaching in Science labs. Teachers are looking forward to this learning being cascaded down to them with the aim of further improving the student’s experience of science at BIS.
Mr Chris Paine, Head of Science
We are thrilled to announce that a record three students from the BIS HCMC Class of 2025 have received offers from the University of Oxford, ranked number 3 in the world, and the University of Cambridge, ranked number 5 in the world. A huge congratulations to Quynh An, YeongSeo (Judy) and JaeYeon on their extraordinary achievement that sets a new benchmark for BIS students.
These achievements come as BIS students begin to secure outstanding offers from top universities around the world, including USA, UK, Australia and Asia and these numbers will only continue to rise as more decisions will be made over the coming weeks.
We are incredibly proud of our Year 11 class of 2024, for their impressive IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) results. This incredible cohort of 155 students, our largest IGCSE class in the history of the school, have significantly surpassed UK and international averages and were awarded 97% of all grades at A*-C. An incredible 62% of all grades awarded were at A*-A.
