The IGCSE exam results are out, and Hiba Academy Shanghai pupils once again performed admirably on this challenging series of examinations.

Record-breaking
A*/A percentages
85% of all grades were A*/A grades, a 10% increase from the previous year, demonstrating our pupils' consistent and robust academic abilities.
43% of our pupils achieved all A*/A grades, and 76% scored A*/A in at least seven subjects, both improvements over the prior year.
Despite increasingly rigorous global grading standards and a significant increase in the number of exam takers, the A*/A percentage of Hiba pupils is higher than the average GCSE score of 48.4% in highly selective English private schools.
