At the end of another difficult year for students and schools, thousands of students around the world can celebrate receiving their Cambridge International AS & A Level results today.
Despite the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, exams went ahead in nearly all countries this year, with more than 220,000 students making entries for Cambridge International AS & A Level in the June 2022 series. 95% of students took exams, compared with 75% in June 2021.
Where exams could not go ahead because of local Covid-19 restrictions, Cambridge International provided an alternative assessment, marked by Cambridge examiners. We also provided support to help students and teachers worldwide to adapt running of exams and other assessment to the disruption caused by Covid-19. Our priorities have been ensuring the safety of students and school staff, and ensuring as many students as possible are able to progress with their education.
These achievements today show the resilience of students and the ongoing support of their teachers, families, and communities.
Christine Özden, Chief Accountable Officer, Cambridge International said: “This year has been another tough one – the pandemic has continued to disrupt our lives and learning in different ways. Some of our students and teachers have been affected by school closures and ongoing restrictions.
“More than ever, I congratulate Cambridge students for their hard work towards these results. They’ve shown great resilience and dedication to get to this point, and I am proud of everyone’s achievements. They can now progress to new opportunities and experiences, and I’m confident they have the skills, knowledge and courage to succeed in every choice they make.
“I also want to express special thanks to Cambridge schools and teachers. Their commitment and passion for education has been fundamental to their students’ success.”
Across the entire Cambridge International exam series in June 2022 more than 460,000 students – making 1.4 million entries in 147 countries - have been able to gain the qualifications they need to take their next steps, and we are immensely proud of all they have accomplished.
Cambridge International AS & A Level results are released on 11 August. Cambridge IGCSE and O Level results will be released on 18 August.
