Introduction

The aim of this site is to give some general guidance on the option choices for the IGCSE courses next year. It is important to be fully informed before making your final decision about what courses to follow; therefore you are advised to take every opportunity to talk with your form tutors and Mrs Bodington, the Year 10 Tutor, Mr Nitsche, the Assistant Head Pastoral, Mrs Gargareta.

It is also vital that you speak with your parents and discuss the range of options available to you.

It is also extremely important that you talk with subject teachers about their subject and the demands of that examination. Think about what you like and enjoy studying but combine that with an understanding of what you need to follow as a career that you might be interested in!

What are IGCSEs?

IGCSE stands for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education. They are exams run by Cambridge International Exams and recognised by British, American and European universities. The course is delivered over 2 years, culminating in final exams. There is an element of “controlled conditioned” coursework in some subjects.
