United Private Schools (UPS) has set a new gold standard in academic achievement with its stellar performance in the latest Cambridge IGCSE and AS Level examinations. The IGCSE outcome was particularly striking, boasting a 100% A*-C pass rate in key subjects including Biology, Business Studies, Economics, and ICT. Further enriching this feat, over 90% of the student body attained A*-C grades in other pivotal disciplines such as Chemistry, English, and Mathematics. One student even earned the distinction of a perfect 100% score in Mathematics, encapsulating the school's academic ambition.
Amal al-Abri, Executive Principal at UPS, conveyed her pride and gratitude, saying, "Our students' remarkable achievements stand as a testament to their unwavering dedication, both to academic rigor and the values that define us. We function as one tightly-knit team where each member—be it students, teachers, or parents—contributes to our collective triumph. Our teachers deserve special recognition for their tireless commitment. Their pedagogical expertise and devotion have been crucial in setting our students on the path to success."
The AS Level results further amplified UPS's scholastic prowess. The top-achieving student dazzled with straight A's, while the institution recorded an overall pass rate of 94.4%. In a show of academic muscle, nearly 40% of the students seized the top grade, markedly exceeding the UK's 28% rate for top A-Level grades.
Cambridge Programmes Director, Hamza Plummer, took the opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments, stating, "Congratulations to our deserving students. These Cambridge qualifications are more than academic achievements; they serve as pillars for future success in a rapidly evolving world. All praise be to Allah for showering us with such accomplishments."
Simultaneous to these academic triumphs is the unveiling of UPS's state-of-the-art campus, strategically situated in Al Khoudh, Seeb.
