A-Levels

The "gold standard" certification, A-Levels, is built on a demanding academic curriculum that maximises the skills of gifted students with a variety of abilities and pushes the most capable pupils to reach their greatest potential. All UK institutions accept the Cambridge International AS and A-Levels courses as entry exams since they are thought to be comparable to the UK's AS and A-Levels. Unlike the typical linear A-Levels, when all courses are tested in a single examination session at the end of the course, the A-Levels program uses a "staged" evaluation process. Because of its adaptability, students can take the AS level in a single session and finish the final Cambridge International A-Levels in a later session.
Additionally, students who have finished the AS level will receive insightful comments on their performance at a performance feedback session. This will help them discover their own strengths and shortcomings and help them define study objectives for the A2 level.
