Upholding academic excellence
With 112 World Toppers and Near-Perfect scorers till date, our students have the support and guidance of our IB trained dedicated and experienced teachers.
In 2023, GIIS SMART Campus cohort achieved a school average of 35.9 points, surpassing the global average DP score of 30.24 points and Singapore’s average score of 35.05 points. While seven (7) students achieved perfect (45/45) and near perfect scores (44/45), 38 students achieved scores above 40 points.
In a rigorous curriculum, such as IBDP, which is popularly known as a pre-university programme, high academic standards are highly dependent on the guidance and experience of the curriculum head and teachers. At GIIS, 100% of our teachers are IB trained, 75% of our teachers have over five years of experience in teaching IBDP, and 60% of them are IB examiners.
Our teachers are readily available for our students during their two-year curriculum tenure, providing strategic guidance in various facets of the programme, which demands extensive research, critical thinking and academic rigour.
