INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE RESULTS
OVERVIEW
Trinity’s 2014 candidature has achieved the School’s best ever IB results! Our average score was an
incredible 38.76 which equates to an ATAR of 97.05! As the IB grows in numbers the standard of our results
has risen along with it, as the number of students earning 40+ IB points has risen to 21 in 2014 which
represents 52% of our candidature. The stand out performances (perfect scores of 45) from Leo Jiang and
Adrian Cheng are testament to their all-round ability and determination to succeed. A perfect score of 45 is
an achievement worthy of acclaim at the highest level. Gary Chen, Marco Lee Solano, Alan Li, Christopher
Millican, Andrew Serb, Antony Youssef and Yuzhe Zheng were agonisingly close to a 45, earning 44 points
with a superb demonstration of organisation and application. Some of these boys could well achieve a perfect
score of 45 IB points with remarks of subjects taking place over the next few weeks.
One very pleasing statistic reveals that 34 out of our 41 candidates (an amazing 83%) achieved an IB score
of 33+ and, therefore, an ATAR equivalent of 90+. It is well worth noting too that over 95% of our candidates
obtained IB scores in excess of 29.9+ IB points, which is the IB world average score. This statistic further
emphasises Trinity’s exceptional performances, year in and year out, which are always far in excess of the
IB world standard.
One area in which Trinity makes the most of its opportunities is the Core of the IB. We should be very proud of
the fact that 20 students (almost 50% of our candidature) achieved the full 3 extra points awarded for Theory
of Knowledge and the Extended Essay. Very few schools in the world could achieve such results. 83% of our
candidates achieved an A or a B in Theory of Knowledge while a significant proportion of our students (83%)
achieved either an A or a B in their Extended Essays. A pleasing development in Extended Essays has been
the sheer variety of subjects from which our students are drawing inspiration. Our Extended essays were
spread over 13 different subjects this year including Human Rights, World Studies and Philosophy.
