ISC–Lahore and ISC–Cairo Students Receive Outstanding Achiever Awards
Five students from the SABIS® School Network recently received Outstanding Achiever Awards for their impressive results on the June 2009 Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations. Three students from The International School of Choueifat–Lahore and two students from The International School of Choueifat–Cairo were recognized for placing in the top 10 worldwide for exam performance in a subject or having the highest score in their country when more than 100 candidates there sat for the exam.
University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) is the world’s largest provider of international qualifications for 14–19 year olds. Cambridge IGCSE exams are taken by students from over 2,000 schools in more than 100 countries around the world. The ISC students, four of whom are currently in Grade 12 and one who graduated in 2009, earned recognition in math, English literature, business studies, history, and computer science.
The students recognized at ISC–Lahore received their Cambridge Outstanding Achiever Awards, formerly known as the Cambridge Brilliance Awards, on February 2 during a school assembly. “We’re very pleased with their achievement. It shows that our students are receiving the proper foundation of knowledge to achieve high academic standards,” commented ISC–Lahore Director, Margo Abdel Aziz. Award recipients at ISC–Cairo will receive their certificates on March 24, 2010.
This achievement is not a first for ISC–Lahore as students have recurrently won High Achiever certificates from Edexcel UK for recording top scores in various O Level and A Level examinations. For ISC–Cairo, however, this is the first time students have received this distinguished award.
Through the comprehensive SABIS® Educational System including a world-class curriculum, SABIS® students are prepared to excel on a number of external exams and gain entry to the world’s top universities.
