Sevenoaks has been named a top global IB school for 2025 for excellence in academic achievement by Education Advisers, Best Schools and www.ib-schools.com
In 2025 Top IB School League Tables, which were released this week, Sevenoaks is the top large-cohort IB school in the UK and Europe, and in the top two large-cohort schools in the world.
The school is also one of the top 3 UK IB boarding schools, the top 5 UK IB schools and the top 20 global IB schools.
The list also places Sevenoaks as the world’s best co-ed day and boarding school with a large IB cohort.
The Education Advisers annual league tables use results from independent schools around the world which teach in English.
Sevenoaks is a flagship school for the IB. With an all-IB Sixth Form, we have an IB Diploma cohort of nearly 250, one of the largest in the UK, and we have a proud 47-year history of teaching the IB.
We were the first HMC school to offer the IB, in 1978, and the first to go all-IB, in 1999. Our average Diploma score is consistently around 10 points above the world average.
With its academic and co-curricular breadth, depth and interdisciplinarity, and its emphasis on critical thinking, service and international mindedness, the IB is an outstanding preparation for universitiy and for our students as they go on to take their part as global citizens.
