23,392 students worldwide have received their Diploma Programme (DP) and Career-related Programme (CP) results from the November 2025 examination session, marking the completion of their two-year learning journeys. This represents a 6.8% increase in the number of students receiving DP and CP results.
The IB celebrates the achievements of all students who have reached this important milestone. Over the course of these two years, they have developed the knowledge, skills, and mindset needed to thrive in a changing world and contribute meaningfully to their communities.
Today’s IB graduates join a community of 2.7 million lifelong learners across 157 countries worldwide where the DP and CP are offered. The global average DP score for the November 2025 session is 29.3 points.
Olli-Pekka Heinonen, Director General of the International Baccalaureate, congratulated DP and CP students on their significant achievements.
“These IB graduates have shown remarkable resilience and dedication. As they prepare for higher education, careers, or service to their communities, they can be confident they possess the skills and global perspective that will allow them to thrive.
We are immensely proud of their efforts and will no doubt take further pride in their future achievements, built on a foundation of compassion, creativity, and critical thinking.”
The Diploma Programme (DP) offers students world-class preparation for university and life beyond. The comprehensive, inquiry-based education it provides fosters confidence, critical thinking, language development, and academic achievement. Offered in over 3,880 IB World Schools across 157 countries, the DP aligns with local education systems while nurturing global perspectives and ethical leadership.
The Career-related Programme (CP) continues to grow, with 436 IB World Schools currently offering the programme in 58 countries. The CP is designed for students aged 16–19 who want to combine academic studies with career-related learning. The CP develops key transferable skills such as confidence, social responsibility, and a strong sense of purpose, offering students a practical and future-ready pathway.
For the November 2025 examination session, DP and CP students completed all assessment components for each subject and the IB awarded grades using all components, coursework and examinations.
