2 The Pathways Vision
3 IGCSE Programme Pathways World School offers a two-year International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) in the 9 th and 10 th Grades. We believe that the IGCSE Programme not only offers our students many excellent opportunities to prepare themselves for post-secondary education anywhere in the world but, also provides them with the skills, knowledge and experience necessary to be productive citizens in the international community. The IGCSE is a balanced international curriculum designed to encourage high academic standards through a practical approach to teaching and learning. The International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is an international curriculum run by the Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). The programme has a wide curriculum specifically tailored to international needs, with an assessment system appropriate for students of all abilities. It consists of a two year syllabus culminating in a public examination at the end of Grade 10. It provides an excellent first stage for students who are considering entering university in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, Asia or Europe. The IGCSE suits both the academic and the creative, vocational student. The program of study teaches and encourages independence of thought, the analysis of a wide range of issues and strong communicative skills. In addition to providing excellent preparation for students planning to enter our International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in the 11th and 12th Grades, the IGCSE provides students with the opportunity to measure their academic skills against a similar age group from around the world and to gain valuable experience in taking external examinations. It is equivalent in standard to the British GCSE and is recognized as evidence of ability by academic institutions and employers worldwide. The examination body is CIE (Cambridge International Examinations). All examination s are set in the UK and the answer scripts are also sent to the UK for marking. The structure and content of the syllabi are validated by the UK Qualifications and Curriculum Authority ( QCA), ensuring quality education. The progress of students is carefully monitored throughout the IGCSE Course and they are taught to set their own targets and determine the actions necessary to achieve them. Students continue to follow a life skills programme and have the benefit of individual mentoring by their personal tutors. Careers education and advice forms a part of the life skills programme. All students will take part in the Physical Education programme and time slots are set aside for this. Other than formal examination syllabi, students are encouraged and expected to develop a number of other skills considered necessary for a rounded education today.
