While we celebrate our Class of 2022 IB diploma results, our students are much more than the mere sum of their IB scores. They are emerging scientists, artists, researchers, engineers and entrepreneurs. Their time with us was a remarkably productive and rewarding partnership. We look forward to seeing where their next set of challenges and opportunities will take them.

Secondary academic awards honour a student’s academic achievement and their commitment to progress both academically and in their approaches to learning (ATL’s). The criteria for academic awards can be viewed here.

While student progress is tracked and documented using a range of different assessments, CIS uses Measures of Academic Progress (MAP), developed by Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA), as an externally referenced assessment tool to benchmark learning growth.

MAP provides comprehensive data on student achievement and growth, over time, in Reading and Mathematics. Achievement in MAP is indicated by a RIT score, and it is expected that RIT scores will increase over time. The graphs below show how our student community from senior kindergarten (SK) to grade 10 have performed in the final May 2022 MAP tests.

The Youth Chinese Test (YCT) is one conducted by CRESTAR in Singapore. At CIS, students in the Chinese-English bilingual programme and grades 2 to 10 Chinese language acquisition programme take part.

Over the last five years, CIS students have outperformed all other students in Singapore in the Youth Chinese Test (YCT), demonstrate the overall high quality of our programme.
