The Examination is taken at the end of Year 11, in May and June, and includes written, oral and practical assessment.

​

Key Stage 5 - Preparing and sitting for the A-Levels

​

KS 5-1 (Year 12) for ages 16-17 years

KS 5-2 (Year 13) for ages 17-18 years

​

The A-Level is a two-year programme resulting in a school leaving qualification recognised and required for entry into universities worldwide. This programme is an intensive and specialist subject-based qualification in which students will study between 3 to 4 subjects throughout the two years.

 

Students are only qualified to take a subject if they meet the required Grade C in the subject at IGCSE. Availability of subjects will vary from year to year and are dependant on the number of candidates.
