Windermere School Celebrates Outstanding IB Results

6 July 2024

Windermere School students are celebrating their International Baccalaureate results today including outstanding individual Diploma results and an exceptional performance by the whole cohort of students taking the vocational Business course on the IB Career Pathway.

“We are proud of all our Year 13 students’ efforts and achievements today,” said Head Frank Thompson. “We are a small school so to have four of our Diploma students score over 40 points (equivalent to 4 A* at A level) is fantastic. Out of a maximum score of 45, Greg gained 44 points and Katerina the maximum score of 45. This is truly exceptional.”

“We also have a thriving Career Pathway with 89% of our students this year achieving a double Distinction (DD) in BTEC Business. The great success of these students will give our new sixth form students a real boost as they prepare to start their vocational pathway in Business or our new Adventure course next term.”

The IB Diploma and Career pathways prepare students for a wide range of university courses and this year these include Engineering, Veterinary Medicine, Philosophy, Politics and Economics, Chemistry, Theology, and Computer Science at Russell Group universities UCL, Edinburgh, Leeds, York and Exeter as well as St Andrew’s and Lancaster Universities.

More students these days are opting to gain their degree through following an apprenticeship and we are delighted that Laura, who performed strongly in the IB Diploma, has gained an Apprenticeship with Airbus UK.

“Joining Airbus, I would get three years’ work experience as well as a BSc. making me more employable, especially working for a well-known company and being a STEM ambassador visiting schools whilst studying.” Laura

“I’m really excited to be going to university. I’ve been looking forward to it since the age of 9. I am passionate about studying politics because it shapes the world and affects everyone. I stayed up watching the election to 3:30am because I found the process so exciting.” Mayumi

“I am going to study Economics and Mathematics at Maastricht University next term. I like it because it is fast moving and it is very international.” Gwennaelle

“I am looking forward to doing Chemistry with Mathematics at UCL. Chemistry is, in my view, the central science and I want to go into it in depth. UCL have a lot of modules which link Chemistry to Biology and Mathematics which lets me broaden my knowledge.” Katerina

These exceptional results not only highlight the hard work and dedication of our students but also underscore the quality of education and support provided at Windermere School. We are immensely proud of their achievements and excited about their bright futures.
