  • English
  • Mathematics
  • French
  • Physical Education (Non Examinable)
  • Science (Double Award or 2 GCSE’s)

A number of students also take English Literature as well as English Language. An additional three subjects will be taken from the list below. These are called “Options”:

  • Art
  • Business Studies
  • Computer Studies
  • Spanish
  • Drama
  • History
  • Geography

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.
