IGCSE

Cambridge Upper Secondary (14-16 years) where learners get to choose from a wide range of IGCSE subjects. Learners are challenged to expand academic knowledge with breadth and depth. At this stage, learners start to select subjects that will assist in future education and career pathways.

Why possibly the IGCSE be a better choice for my child?
The IGCSE is accessible to those of almost all levels of ability. The questions are often differentiated in terms of levels of difficulty to meet the needs of both the most able student as well as those who find academics challenging. Because most assessment takes place at the end of the course, it allows students whose first language is not English more time to learn over the course of the programme before demonstrating their learning at the end. The IGCSE is certainly a good option if you know your child has strengths in assimilating knowledge and demonstrating this knowledge in exam conditions.

Another important detail in IGCSE’s favor is that many universities in the UK, in the absence of IB Diploma or A-Level results, will take into account the IGCSE results to offer university placement. So, if a student is thinking of pursuing tertiary studies in the UK, IGCSEs provide a University Admissions Department with a more rounded picture of the candidate. It is equally highly-regarded as an international qualification by European universities and North American colleges, who will take it into account alongside the relevant A Levels or IB Diploma grades.

For learners who plan to return to Egypt for higher education, the Number Grading is more beneficial (as per their equivalency formulation now).
