Latest results confirm BFIS amongst the best international schools worldwide.
In early July 2023, students from all around the globe who participated in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) received their results from the May 2023 examination session. At BFIS, we are proud to celebrate our eleventh year of IBDP graduates, which included 53 diploma candidates and 1 course candidate. As an inclusive school, we take great pride in the fact that an impressive 98% of our 11th and 12th grade students undertook the challenges of the full IB Diploma Program and 94% of the graduating class obtained full IB Diploma status on results day compared to a worldwide average of 79%.
BFIS’s average score was 34 points, four points above the worldwide average of 30 points. BFIS’s highest score was 43 points and 56% of BFIS IBDP candidates were awarded the bilingual diploma. At BFIS we report the scores of all of our graduates and believe passionately in the success that all of our students can have in the Diploma Program. We believe that they will all reach their full potential within the program when they are supported by our caring faculty and staff. These results confirm our commitment to that philosophy.

These IBDP results stand as a testament to extraordinary achievement, particularly when measured against global averages. What makes this accomplishment even more remarkable are individual narratives that relate stories untold through statistical data.
