International A-levels

What is International A Level?

The International A Levels are the most commonly studied curriculum around the world. They are based on the UK high school education system and are adapted for a global student base.

In Year 12 students move on to the A Levels that are further broken down into two parts: the AS Level, called “Advanced Subsidiary”, (usually done in Year 12) and A2 Level (typically done in Year 13). Traditionally, students take 4-5 AS Level subjects and then go on to take 3-4 of those subjects at the A2 Level.

TYPICAL AGE RANGE

The International GCSE classes course is suitable for students 16-18 years old. In some countries students divide studies over two years.

ENROLLMENT OPTIONS

The A Level courses can be taken as a full-time or part-time option along with other subjects. Students can also take a combination of levels at CGA.

EXAM

The Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Further Mathematics consists of four externally-examined papers. Students must take Paper 1 and Paper 2, the two mandatory Core Pure papers, and two optional papers. All papers are 1 hour and 30 minutes and 75 marks each. External assessment for all papers offered two times a year.

Basis of what you will learn in A Level Further Mathematics

This Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Further Mathematics builds on the skills, knowledge and understanding set out in the whole GCSE subject content for mathematics and the subject content for the Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced Subsidiary and Advanced GCE Mathematics qualifications.

Students will understand mathematics and mathematical processes in ways that promote confidence, foster enjoyment and provide a strong foundation for progress to further study; and they will extend their range of mathematical skills and techniques.
