CONTINUE TO HIT NEW HEIGHTS 2016 UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGE OFFERS
The academic progress of pupils at Wellington College
International Tianjin continues to break new ground. This year
saw I/GCSE results in excess of 95% A*-C, and both IBDP and
AS pupils recorded best ever results for the school. Particular
praise should go to Celia in Year 12, who gained straight A*s
at I/GCSE – our first pupil to achieve such an outstanding set
of grades – and Paul from Year 13, who gained an IBDP total
of 42 points. This latter achievement, so close to the maximum
possible score of 45, places Paul among the very best exam
candidates of the year, and clearly when considered within the
global context of the Diploma Programme, a fantastic result. Current first-choice offers are as follows:
We are now anticipating another record-breaking year from
all our candidates, whether it be at I/GCSE, A Level or IBDP.
Our young people have shown consistent hard work and sense
of purpose, allied to the skill and dedication of our teaching
staff. They are all to be congratulated for another great year of
achievement for the school.
