At JBCN International School, Parel, our learners have once again demonstrated exceptional academic excellence in the May 2026 International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) examinations. With a school average of 37.6, significantly above the global IB average of 30.88, the Class of 2026 continues JBCN's legacy of academic rigour, personalised mentoring, and future-ready learning.
These outstanding results are complemented by exceptional university placements across 19 countries, reaffirming why JBCN International School Parel is recognised among the leading IB schools in Mumbai.
One of the defining features of the IB Diploma Programme is its Diploma Core, comprising Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay (EE), and Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS).
These components encourage learners to think critically, conduct university-level research, reflect on how knowledge is constructed, and develop meaningful experiences beyond the classroom.
The average Diploma Core score of 2.20 out of 3 achieved by the Class of 2026 reflects our learners' strong analytical, research, and academic writing skills—qualities highly valued by universities across the world.
JBCN International Schools have also been recognised at the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards, with learners receiving eight awards, including five recognised as Top in the World and three as Top in India-the highest number of such awards secured in Mumbai.
Learners also recorded strong outcomes in Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics, securing the highest number of Mathematics awards in Mumbai across International Mathematics and Mathematics (Without Coursework), alongside top scores in Global Perspectives at IGCSE and Sociology, Digital Media and Design at AS Level.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to every learner, their families, and our entire school community. Your collective efforts have made these achievements possible. Keep soaring high, Changemakers!
