The British School of Bucharest is proud of its reputation for academic excellence. We encourage students to investigate concepts, explore ideas and look for connections beyond the examined syllabus.
This ensures that they leave the British School of Bucharest with the ability to understand and tackle the challenges that higher education and life will bring. Of course, our individualised approach has produced results repeatedly, and last year was no exception.

Academic Excellence
Results at IGCSE over a three-year period show attainment to be above the average for similar BSO schools. Results in English language, English literature, mathematics, biology, business and further mathematics are excellent, with one half of the Year 11 cohort obtaining either A* to A or grade 9 to 7 in all their IGCSE examinations, and with several pupils gaining top achiever awards in Romania, Europe and worldwide.
Results at A level have been consistently well above the world average for the past three years, with over half the cohort obtaining A to A* grades and nearly three-quarters achieving A* to B grades in 2024.
