鈥淓SF offers a world-class education, and we have world-class students,鈥� the organisation鈥檚 Chief Executive Officer, Belinda Greer, said today.

She was speaking as Cambridge IGCSE released their results for 2019. Three Hong Kong students, all from the English Schools Foundation (ESF), achieved world best results.

鈥淓SF has cemented its place as one of the world鈥檚 leading education systems,鈥� said Belinda Greer.

鈥淎ll these awards demonstrate the high standard of our students across Chinese as a Second Language, Co-Ordinated Sciences, English as a Second Language, International Mathematics, First Language Korean, Foreign Language German, Thinking Skills, Drama, Global Perspectives, and World Literature.鈥�

鈥淲e have seen young men and women at all levels, in all of our schools achieve great success today. When a family chooses ESF for their child鈥檚 education we make them a very simple promise: all of us will work every single day, in every single class to help every single student be the best that they can be. These results show that we are making good on that promise.鈥�

ESF Director of Education, Adam Hughes, joined Belinda Greer in congratulating the students:

"That we continue to achieve results of global significance is down to the hard work of the students, but also to the quality of the teachers, leaders and support staff we have in our schools."

"At ESF, our team believes in helping every child reach their potential. Across all of our schools, students will be celebrating today with their friends and their families. I could not be any more proud of them."

Cambridge IGCSEs are subject-based qualifications administered by Cambridge Assessment International Education, part of the University of Cambridge. Taken in over 145 countries and taught by over 5,500 schools worldwide, the exam is recognised by leading universities, further education institutions and employers around the world as evidence of academic achievement.

Crowned top of the world in World Literature, Samara Chaplain from ESF South Island School credited commitment, strategy and passion for her success:

"If you can apply the issues presented in the text to the current world, which you will be able to, it makes it feel much more real, relevant, and important; and therefore easier to write passionately about."
