Years 10 & 11 follow the British GCSE, IGCSE or BTEC curricula and lead to examinations and qualifications in each subject. Typically each course spans two years, in Years 10 and 11, with final exams and coursework presented in May or June of Year 11.
A good set of IGCSE qualifications can be useful for students hoping to go to University in the United Kingdom or in Hong Kong. In these places it is the level of the grades that students obtain that is much more important than the number of the grades. For other countries the qualifications are not particularly valuable, although the experience may well be.
In Addition to the core subjects, English, Science and Maths, Students will need to pick four further subjects from Languages, Individuals and Societies and Creative Arts. Students will attend lessons in subjects that are not examined such as P.E., PSHE and will also be provided with differentiated lessons called WIN time that look to support, consolidate or extend their learning in a personalised way.
