ACS International School Cobham

🎓 From Cambridge to George Washington University, congratulations to the ACS Cobham Class of 2026! 🌍

Today, as students across the country celebrate their results, we’re incredibly proud to recognise the achievements of our graduating students and the many different paths they’re taking next.

⭐ Owen Bourgeois achieved an outstanding 43 out of 45 points in the IB Diploma, the highest score at ACS Cobham this year and is heading to George Washington University to study International Affairs while continuing his sporting career playing Division I college baseball.

⭐ Martin Donadini, who joined ACS Cobham at just two years old, followed our AP pathway and has secured a place to study Mathematics at the University of Cambridge.

Their journeys may be very different, but they demonstrate something fundamental to an ACS Cobham education: there is no single route to success.

Our students have the freedom to choose between the globally recognised IB Diploma and AP programme, building an academic pathway around their individual strengths, interests and ambitions.

And this year’s results give us plenty to celebrate:

🎉 Our IB students achieved an average of 35 points, significantly above the global average of 30
🎉 28% achieved 38 points or higher
🎉 Students completed 551 AP examinations across 38 subjects
🎉 92% of AP exams achieved scores of 3 or above

As AI continues to transform universities, careers and the workplace, we’re committed to preparing our students with much more than academic knowledge, developing the critical thinking, creativity, adaptability, independence and global perspective they’ll need for the future.

Congratulations to Owen, Martin and the entire Class of 2026. We can’t wait to see where your individual paths take you next. See our full results press release here - https://tinyurl.com/top-students-cobham 💚

With A-level Results Day approaching, it’s a timely opportunity to look at how different curricula prepare students not only for university, but for life beyond it.

Earlier this year, we partnered with IBSCA on our latest University Admissions Officers Report, and the findings were clear: 69% of university admissions officers rated the IB Diploma as the best curriculum for preparing students to thrive at university.

At ACS Cobham, being future-ready is at the heart of our approach. The IB Diploma develops more than academic knowledge, it encourages critical thinking, independence, curiosity and the confidence to navigate an ever-changing world.

For students preparing for their next chapter, the IB offers an education designed not simply to secure university admission, but to help them thrive at university and beyond.
