Cambridge International Examinations is delighted to announce the winners of the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards, Qatar. The awards celebrate the outstanding academic achievements of secondary school learners in Qatar in the June 2014 Cambridge examination series.
Many schools will be hosting individual awards ceremonies to celebrate their learners’ achievements.
41 learners will receive awards for exceptional performance in Cambridge examinations, including two learners who achieved the highest marks in the world and 32 learners who attained the highest marks in Qatar in a single subject.
The awards also celebrate the achievements of those learners who have been recognised for ‘High Achievement’ based on outstanding performance in subjects which are not yet so widely taken in Qatar, and learners who have achieved the total highest cumulative marks across a number of subjects.
These outstanding results will be recognised by employers and universities around the world as proof of academic excellence.
: “I am very proud to congratulate learners across Qatar on their outstanding results in the Cambridge examinations. It is encouraging to acknowledge the high standards of education offered by schools across the country, reflected through these exceptional results. Two winners in the category ‘Top in the World’ are from Qatar; that alone reflects the levels of excellence. These achievements are a credit to the partnerships which Cambridge has established with schools and demonstrate the dedication and commitment of teachers, support provided by families and friends, and learners’ determination and passion to succeed. This success defines them not just as learners, but as Cambridge learners. I wish them every success in their future.”
