Jerudong International School (JIS) is celebrating a landmark academic year, recording exceptional performance across both its IGCSE and Sixth Form examination cohorts. The combined success highlights high standards across all learning tracks, from lower secondary completions to pre-university qualifications.
IGCSE Academic Excellence
The school's Year 11 cohort achieved one of the strongest IGCSE performances in school history. Over six out of every ten grades awarded (61%) reached the highest A* to A threshold, while 96% of all student marks fell within A* to C. High achievers were recognized across several academic tiers.
Sixth Form Performance Across Three Pathways
JIS Sixth Formers excelled across all three specialized learning routes: A Levels, the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma, and the Pearson BTEC International Level 3 Extended Diploma in Creative Media.

A Level: 47% of all grades were A* or A, with 69% between A* and B. Additionally, 26% of candidates earned three or more A* or A grades, a 10% increase over the previous year. High performers included 8 students achieving four A* or A grades (one with an additional AS Level pass), 10 students earning three mixed A*/A grades, and 12 students securing three straight A grades.
