The Academy of excellence Khairpur affliating with cambridge university Published: Feb,02 2014 | 04:50 Accademic Calander 2010-11 khairpur– The managemnet of the Academy announces that this academic year begining from August 2014,O-level classes will be satreted.it is for the firts time that any school is affliating with Cambridge university in the town.the IGCSE system is the most innovative and creative system which allows student to learn based on his own reasearch.THE International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is a globally recognised qualification, taken at the Class 10 level, similar to the Class 10 examinations of the CBSE and ICSE or the middle years Programme of the IB.iT is a comprehensive two-year programme, spread over Class 9 and 10, and leads to the final examinations offered every year in May and November.IGCSE assessment is conducted by two UK assessment bodies: Edexcel (also known as London Examinations) and Cambridge International Examinations . The assessment is aimed at a wide ability range of students, with an eight-point grading scale, from A+ to G, with A+ being the highest. IGCSE is a balanced curriculum and a flexible course of study. Most subjects offer a choice between core curriculum and extended curriculum. This gives students of all ability levels the freedom to choose subjects that are right for them and, thereby, the opportunity to score good grades. The core curriculum is an overview of the subject and is suitable for students who are expected to achieve grades C to G. The extended curriculum is, sort of, a specialisation in that subject. It is more challenging and designed for students who are expected to achieve grades A+ to C. While the syllabi and curricula of both IB MYP and IGCSE have an international outlook, IGCSE appears to be slightly better, in that it is tailored for a more multi-cultural and more multi-lingual audience. Does the IGCSE start only in Class 9? What about the primary years? Can a student do IGCSE after completing his/ her earlier schooling through a different board? Currently, IGCSE is a two-year programme starting at the Class 9 level. A student who has done his/ her early schooling from any other board can join the IGCSE programme at the Class 9 level. CIE has declared the launch of its new Cambridge International Primary Programme in June this year. The introduction of this programme means students will be able to study the IGCSE from age five through age18. What are the subjects in the IGCSE curriculum? There are five Subject Groups in IGCSE with several subjects to choose from, in each group: Group 1: Languages (First Language, Second Language, Foreign Language, etc) Group 2: Humanities and Social Sciences (Geography, English Literature, History, etc) Group 3: Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, etc) Group 4: Mathematics (Mathematics, Additional Mathematics, etc) Group 5: Creative, Technical & Vocational (Accounting, Business Studies, Computer Studies, Music, etc) tHE MANAGEMENT REPLIED TO POSSIBLE QUERIES OF THE PARENTS ON THE INDUCTION/ADMITTANCE OF THEIR STUDENTS IN THIS SYSTEM. The director Mrs Hameeda Ahmed answered the queries,the details are given a sunder; Why should I select IGCSE for my child? 1.

The IGCSE programme has worldwide status and credibility. In India, the course is delivered in over 130 schools with the number expected to touch 600 by 2008. It is recognised by the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) as being at par with CBSE, ICSE, etc. Worldwide, it is delivered in schools in over 140 countries and is recognised by colleges and universities everywhere, more so in the UK and other Commonwealth countries. 3. The IGCSE curriculum is balanced and lends an international perspective to studies. It also takes account of differing abilities of students. 4.
