AS and A-Level
After their (I)GCSE examinations, students who have gained at least 5 A to C grades may enter the Advanced International Programme. In the first of these two years Form 12 students normally study 4 or 5 subjects to prepare for external AS examinations. In the second year (Year 13) they prepare for external A-Levels. AS and A-Level are, once again, administered from the United Kingdom. The subjects studied are chosen from a wide range, giving students the chance to create a course with both breadth and depth.
