Cambridge IGCSE

What is IGCSE?

IGCSE stands for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education. It is the world’s most popular one-year program provided for grade 10 students. Any student who takes an IGCSE subject will be gaining a qualification that is recognized globally. They are established qualifications that keep pace with educational developments and trends and so are an ideal foundation for higher level courses such as A-Levels, AP or the International Baccalaureate Diploma. Students typically take 5-6 subjects during the grade 10 year. Not only can students lay the foundation of English, but also pave the way for learning disciplinary knowledge.

How are Cambridge IGCSE courses in Cogdel Cranleigh School?

Cambridge IGCSE/A-level courses was first introduced to Cogdel Cranleigh School Changsha in 2020 (Centre Number: CX058). Cambridge IGCSE assessment takes place at the end of the course and can include written, oral, coursework and practical assessment. This broadens opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning, particularly when their first language is not English. In many subjects there is a choice between core and extended curricula, making Cambridge IGCSE suitable for a wide range of abilities. In Cogdel Cranleigh School, we require all students to take the extended level courses. Grades are benchmarked using eight internationally recognized grades, A* to G, which have clear guidelines to explain the standard of achievement for each grade. Cambridge IGCSE examination sessions occur twice a year, in May and November and results are issued in August and January. We usually organize students to take part in the IGCSE examination in May.
