Andrew Fitzmaurice, Chief Executive Officer of Nord Anglia Education said, “We are extremely proud of our students’ IGCSE and GCSE results this year. For a fifth year in a row, students have far exceeded UK GCSE averages which is a testament to our students’ and teachers’ hard work, dedication to academic excellence, and our Be Ambitious philosophy. Congratulations to all our students on their outstanding results.”
The GCSEs are qualifications studied by children age 14–16 in the British education system. Students study a wide range of subjects for two years, including extended assessed coursework and challenging terminal examinations. IGCSEs are a version of these programmes designed for students outside the UK. They are worth the same as a standard GCSE, and are equally recognised by education institutions in the UK and around the world.
