The Class of 2021 at Qatar Academy Sidra is celebrating the results of their International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, which were announced globally this month.
The results for Qatar Academy Sidra (QAS), which is part of Qatar Foundation’s (QF) Pre-University Education, revealed that the average score for its students was 35.2 points, which was higher than the global average, with some students scoring as high as 40 points. All those who applied for the qualification passed with a perfect score, and two-thirds of all students received a bilingual diploma.
Dr. Carolyn Mason Parker, director, QAS, said: “Students have faced new situations over the last 18 months. QAS graduates have risen to the challenges of learning in the midst of a pandemic. We congratulate them on their excellent performance. We are proud of their contributions to our school community, and eager to hear how they will continue to be future changemakers.”
The students are now preparing to attend a variety of universities around the world, including Georgetown University in Qatar, a QF partner university; the University of Reading in the United Kingdom; the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom; the American University of Cairo in Egypt; the University of Toronto in Canada; the University of California San Diego in the United States; McGill University in Canada; the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands; and the American University of Cairo in Egypt.
When the Class of 2021 graduated from the two-year program in May, they officially joined a global community of nearly one million International Baccalaureate-educated men and women.
