ACS Egham IB students achieve 100 per cent pass rate

Students at ACS Egham International School received their International  Baccalaureate (IB) results on Wednesday 7^th July. Every one of the 31 students that completed their exams last month has passed their IB Diploma and can now celebrate and look ahead to university. The students achieved an average score of 34 points, which is equivalent to 479 UCAS points or four A grades at A level.

Students at ACS Egham will now be getting ready to attend universities across the UK, America and elsewhere in the world.

Alan Perkins, IB Coordinator at ACS Egham, said:

"I am absolutely delighted for the class of 2011, who have really shone over the past two years. With a 100% pass rate, all of our students can be really proud of themselves. I wish them all the best for their future careers."

The IB results have been announced in the same week in which a research report by ACS International Schools showed that the IB Diploma is rated very highly among university admissions officers. UK admissions officers deem the qualification to be stronger than A Levels in a range of attributes including communication skills, independent inquiry, ability to cope with pressure and open mindedness.

The report, now in its sixth year of publication, also revealed the growing competition for places, with over three quarters of UK admissions officers stating that they have more students to choose from this year than in 2010.
