Our IGCSE class of 2013 has once again returned exceptional examination results. We are now proud to share some remarkable, individual achievements of our students.

Our YCIS Top Five for June 2013 are: Soo Hyun, Natasha, Yen Ting, Chen, and Haeyeon. We also had six students achieve six or more A* grades, and those were Rachel, Selina, Josephine, Zibo, Chuan Ting, and Rochester.

The accolades for this group of YCIS students do not stop there! Every year, Cambridge also awards high achieving students with special certificates and honours. This year, we had seven students receive special recognition from Cambridge for their achievements. Soo Hyun received numerous distinctions of honour, including Top in the World for Additional Mathematics, Top in China in the subjects of Cambridge International Mathematics, Co-ordinated Sciences, and Economics, and Best Across Eight Cambridge IGCSEs. Natasha succeeded in reaching Top in the World for Foreign Language: Mandarin Chinese, as well as Top in China for Design & Technology. Zibo and Chen both earned Top in China for Geography, and Yen Ting’s scores on First Language: English merited a Top in China award, as well. Finally, Matthieu and Risa earned a High Achievement Award in First Language: French and Japanese, respectively.

A huge “Congratulations” goes out to all of our IGCSE students from last year, as well as a big hand for the support and guidance of their teachers and families.
