ACG Parnell Years 11-13
Students in Years 11 to 13 study an academic course based on the Cambridge International Examination system. IGCSE, AS and A-Level are seen as part of a single qualification system. Thus, courses at Years 12 and 13 are likely to contain a mixture of qualification levels.
Year 11
- Students usually take six IGCSE subjects, plus one period of Physical Education each week.
- The three core subjects in IGCSE are:
- English Language
- English Literature
- Mathematics (Core or Extended)
- A pass grade in IGCSE Mathematics is required to meet the Numeracy Standard for University Entrance.
Years 12 and 13
- Students usually take eight subjects over 2 years.
- The Literacy Standard for University Entrance is a minimum grade E in AS English.
- Students applying to overseas universities should plan to complete three full A Levels.
