IBT Mains 2022 results released in India

The International Benchmark Tests (IBT) are an annual assessment of academic achievement that measures students’ learning against the international assessment framework developed over the past 15 years by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) researchers and educational measurement experts.

Schools from several countries – including leading schools in India affiliated with different school boards – participate in the assessment each year. Students take the tests from November to January, based on their schools’ test dates.

In India, in IBT Mains 2022, more than 67,000 assessments were sat in English, Mathematics, Science and Reasoning across grades 3 to 10.  Schools have now received reports detailing their students’ levels of achievement in relation to the IBT reporting scales and to the international cohort, providing rich insights for teachers to support their students’ future learning.

IBT’s reports are underpinned by reporting scales developed by ACER that describe the skills, knowledge and concepts that students are demonstrating, as well as providing robust indicators of learning growth. Schools around the world use these reports to better understand students’ strengths and next steps in learning. In addition, the reports provide relevant and reliable comparison to achievements of students participating in IBT around the globe.

The top 10 schools in India with the highest number of students receiving Honour, High Distinction, and Distinction certificates are:

The ACER India team is now working with IBT schools in India to support them in the effective use of data from the IBT 2022 reports to improve learning. Students will receive IBT results and certificates recognising their participation and achievement directly from their schools.
