IGCSE courses

The IGCSE course has a high number of examinations. Completion of this part of the course is required before you can progress to the next stage of the course or the IB-DP. IGCSE results are one of the most important references for university applications to Oxford University and Cambridge University in the UK. The IGCSE course is condensed from the standard two-year GCSE course, with students studying five or six courses in one year.
Course advantages: study a wide range of subjects, experience different subjects and study with native British learners.
