Remarkable IGCSE results achieved by BIS HCMC students across all subjects

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 GCSE averages and were awarded 97% of all grades at A*-C.  An incredible 62% of all grades awarded were at A*-A.

This remarkable group of students worked incredibly hard through their two-year IGCSE programme, and their dedication, commitment to study and attitude to learning certainly paid off with 97% of students achieving 5 or more A*-C grades across all subjects, including English and Maths. An impressive 31 students achieved straight A*-A grades in all their subjects demonstrating their incredible breadth of knowledge and skill across a diverse set of subject areas.

These results now provide our students with the best possible foundation as begin their first year of the rigorous International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), building on their knowledge and skills gained during their IGCSE years.

Stephen Kay, Head of Secondary, shared how proud he was of this incredible group of students:

“Congratulations to our students who took their IGCSE exams in May 2024 and have achieved excellent results. We’re proud of the way you approached the exams, demonstrating determination and resilience and the way you supported each other throughout the exam period. We’re excited to be supporting you now at the beginning of your 6th form IBDP journeys”

A huge congratulations also goes out to our 46 Year 10 students who took IGCSE maths a year early and achieved an impressive 100% of grades at A*-A!
