Rugby School is proud to celebrate another outstanding year of International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma results.

  • 73% of Higher Level (HL) grades were 7–6 (A*–A)
  • 94% of Higher Level (HL) grades were 7–5 (A*–B)

Since the first cohort of IB students in 2023, our results have remained consistently strong:

  • 62.8% of HL grades have been 7–6 (A*–A)
  • 91.1% of HL grades have been 7–5 (A*–B)

Since 2023, 44% of Rugby School’s IB Diploma students have achieved the equivalent of 666/AAA or better at Higher Level, compared with 36% of A Level students.

Our students continue to excel across the full Diploma, achieving an average of 36 points since the programme began in 2021 – significantly higher than the global average of 30 points.

This year, Sofiia Yarytska (S 23 – 25) achieved an exceptional 44 out of 45 points, earning her a place at Princeton University.

Jadesola Okunubi (S 23 – 25) also distinguished herself, receiving the prestigious Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholarship for her results.

Many of our students have gone on to study a wide range of disciplines at leading universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, UCL, Durham, Yale, and Harvard, among others.

Reflecting on her IB journey, Sofiia said:

“The IB was everything I could have hoped for and more – stimulating, demanding, and deeply rewarding.”
