Eight in ten members of the NOVA Class of 2026 earned the IB Bilingual Diploma this session, the highest share in a peer group of international schools worldwide.
The Bilingual Diploma is a meaningful distinction within the IB Diploma Programme. It reflects sustained language development, strong academic writing, and the ability to engage with learning across English and a student’s additional language.
This year, 95.6% of our diploma candidates earned the full IB Diploma, above the 82.6% global pass rate reported by the International Baccalaureate. Our diploma earners achieved a mean score of 32.5, above the 30.9 global average.
In total, 65 students from the NOVA Class of 2026 move into their next chapter with the IB Diploma in hand, and 52 of them with the Bilingual Diploma alongside it.
Congratulations, NOVA Class of 2026. We are proud of the discipline, resilience, and care behind these results.
