Benefits for your Child

Cambridge Primary prepares your child for success in the later stages of education. All subjects feed into the relevant Cambridge Upper Secondary qualifications. Teachers can monitor your child’s development through progress checks and assessments that we have built into the programme. We offer a range of options for them to choose from, depending on your school’s ethos and context, to identify the best ways to support your child:

• Computer-based assessments to measure and benchmark learners’ potential and identify learning needs.
• Teachers can assess some subjects in the classroom and discuss with your child ‘what went well’ and how to improve further.
• Cambridge Primary Progression Tests help teachers understand your child’s strengths throughout the school year and areas where they need more help. These short tests indicate where your child is on their learning journey, instead of just showing right or wrong answers.
• Cambridge Checkpoint tests are marked externally by Cambridge International, and can be taken in the final year of Cambridge Primary. Your child will receive a statement of achievement and your school will receive detailed feedback about their performance.

GRADE IX TO X

Courses that challenge and inspire

What do our students study?

We want each student to fulfil their potential and make the most of their strengths and interests. So we offer a wide range of subjects and let every student choose the subjects they love and the subjects they’re best at. We design programmes – with the help of expert educators in schools and universities – to challenge students, and get them excited about what they’re learning. They learn about the key concepts of each subject in depth, so they understand them inside and out.
Cambridge Pathway programmes are flexible, so teachers can use examples that are relevant to students’ local context and culture. Students learn in English, and our assessment is accessible to speakers of English as a second or foreign language.

How does the Cambridge Pathway work?

When we design our programmes, we start by identifying what a student needs to learn. Students have to demonstrate understanding and the core knowledge of a subject, as well as think critically. Exams are there to recognise, reward and encourage learning.
The Cambridge Pathway takes students on a journey through Cambridge Primary, Cambridge Lower Secondary, Cambridge IGCSE and Cambridge International AS & A Level. Students can join at any stage.
The Curricula in each stage has aims and objectives that support students to become confident, responsible, reflective, innovative and engaged. These are the attributes of Cambridge learners.

Benefits for your Child

Cambridge IGCSE helps students to develop knowledge, understanding and skills in subject content and intellectual enquiry. The programme has been designed for students worldwide, including those whose first language is not English.
We offer students the flexibility to choose from over 70 subjects at Cambridge IGCSE, meaning they can study the subjects they enjoy and are best at. Assessment takes place at the end of the course and offers students a range of ways to demonstrate their learning, including written, oral, coursework and practical assessments. There are also options to suit learners of different abilities. The grades awarded at Cambridge IGCSE are A*–G, with A* being the highest. This means that Cambridge IGCSE is a great foundation for further study, including Cambridge International AS & A Level, Cambridge Pre-U and other post-16 routes.

Early Years

An Insight into Us

The Early Year wing of the school comprises classes from EY 1 to EY 3 which caters to the needs and demands of early childhood learning. Bearing in mind that at this age the foundation of a child's personality is laid and two third of his intellect is formed, we have created an environment and a system of teaching which is entirely child friendly. They learn social skills, free-play, develop verbal ability and imbibe the skills and joy of creating things with their own hands through art and crafts which is an integral part of the curriculum.
