St. Catherine’s British School is proud to celebrate the remarkable achievements of our students who have been recognised with Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards, honouring their exceptional performance in the Cambridge IGCSE examinations.

The Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards programme recognises the highest-performing students from Cambridge examinations taken in more than 40 countries worldwide. These awards celebrate learners who have achieved the highest standard in their subject globally, demonstrating extraordinary academic excellence.

Four students from St. Catherine’s British School have received the prestigious Top in the World award:

  • Melissa B. – Foreign Language Italian highest grade in the world
  • Sophia F. – Mathematics highest grade in the world
  • Isabella De G. – Mathematics highest grade in the world
  • Cecilia P. – Mathematics highest grade in the world

Achieving the highest grade in the world in these rigorous examinations is an extraordinary accomplishment and reflects the students’ dedication, perseverance, and passion for learning.

Cambridge qualifications are recognised and valued by leading universities across the globe. They equip students with the knowledge, understanding, and critical thinking skills needed to thrive both academically and beyond the classroom. These awards highlight not only outstanding individual achievement but also the strength of the academic journey undertaken by our students.

A Reflection of Our School Community

While these awards celebrate individual success, they also reflect the strength of teaching, learning, and academic ambition at St. Catherine’s British School. They speak to a culture that values curiosity, dedication, integrity, and care, encouraging students to aim high, think deeply, and pursue excellence in everything they do.

We warmly congratulate our Outstanding Cambridge Learner Award recipients on this exceptional achievement and look forward to celebrating many more successes in the years ahead.
