Cambridge International Examinations 2020

Last week, it was confirmed by Cambridge International Examinations that Clara Dujakovic achieved the highest standard mark in New Zealand of 95% for IGCSE Global Perspectives. Clara attended a ceremony in Auckland to accept her award alongside other New Zealand winners.

Clara‘s win was based on completing three pieces of assessed work; and an individual research paper investigating ‘implications of antibiotic resistance’, a team project exploring the ‘legality of conversion therapy’ and finishing the course with a written examination in November which was sat by 7000 students globally.

Clara is full of praise for the skills the Cambridge course has given her; primarily a set of research skills that she can take into every aspect of her academic life. It has also given her an appreciation of her place as a member of our global community, which has led to clear understandings about issues on a local, national and worldwide level.
