Academic Performance
IBDP Results 2025: Outstanding Achievement across our Southbank Community
We are proud to share the exceptional results of our graduating Class of 2025 in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). This year, 75 students completed the full Diploma. Their results reflect the hard work, intellectual ambition, and commitment that characterise a Southbank education.
These outcomes place Southbank among the leading IB schools globally. Just as importantly, they reflect the strength of our inclusive, student-centred approach – where academic achievement is balanced with critical thinking, creativity, and global awareness. We congratulate all our students and thank our dedicated teachers, staff, and families for their continued support.

Southbank International School is the first school in the UK authorised to offer all three International Baccalaureate programmes
For more than 40 years, we’ve been at the forefront of providing internationally relevant, world class education.
At Southbank, experiences aren't just for the weekend or the holidays. It’s built into every day of the academic exploration and discovery of Southbank students. We help our students develop as independent, confident, curious and lifelong learners who fulfil their academic potential and take the natural next step into the world’s best universities.
We encourage our students to think critically and always challenge assumptions; developing an inner confidence to follow their path through university and into later life.
We ensure our students have an openness to the outside world and are ready to see other points of view. These qualities help our students develop to broaden their minds while excelling in their academic studies.
The aim of all IB programmes is to develop internationally minded people who recognize their common humanity and help to create a better and more peaceful world.
The IB learner profile represents 10 attributes valued by IB World Schools which help individuals and groups become responsible members of local, national and global communities.
