Cambridge Assessment International

Program Description:

Lower Secondary - Cambridge Lower Secondary provides students with the opportunity to pursue a rigorous program of study based on an internationally standardized curriculum. Cambridge academies differ from a traditional setting because of the instructional model in which the curriculum is delivered to the learner in an integrated cross content and spiraled method. The goal of the Cambridge program is to build a sound academic foundation for all learners that will enable them to succeed in any high school program including AICE, Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, Honors and regular education programs. Students will develop skills to be confident, responsible, reflective, innovative, and engaged learners. Interested students should possess successful schooling habits, habits of mind, enjoy learning and working with like-minded students and be able and willing to direct their own learning.

Upper Secondary - The Cambridge Advanced International Certificate (AICE) Diploma Program is an innovative and accelerated method of academic study offered solely through the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). Students selected from a broad range of courses and are challenged to work at the highest level of international standards. Diplomas are granted to students who earn 6 or more credits by passing end-of-course exams at the AS level and A level with at least one course from each of the three content groups, Mathematics and Science, Languages, and Arts and Humanities.
