INTRODUCTION

Cambridge IGCSE is the world’s most popular international qualification for 14 to 16 year olds. Developed over 25 years ago, it is tried, tested and trusted by schools worldwide. IGCSE is usually accepted as an entrance standard to many High schools o ering IB Diploma Programmes (DP), A-levels, or Advanced Placement (AP). It is recognised by leading universities and employers worldwide and is an international passport to progression and success.

Reigate Grammar School Vietnam’s two-year programme over Year 10 and 11 (Grade 9 and 10) gives students excellent breadth and challenge as a first-rate preparation for their post-16 studies with us.

All students will take the following:

• IGCSE English (First Language)

• IGCSE Mathematics (with some students also taking IGCSE

• Additional Mathematics in Grade 10)

• IGCSE Co-ordinated Science

• Physical Education

• Another language: Vietnamese Language & Literature for students with Vietnamese nationality, Korean Language & Literature or IGCSE French (Foreign Language)

RGSV's compulsory IGCSE subjects (English as a First Language, Mathematics, Combined Sciences, Additional Language, plus three Options of your choice) ensure that upon completion of these examinations and the IB Diploma/A-Level examinations, our students exceed minimum subject requirements for most universities around the world. To that end, we recommend that students choose subjects they enjoy. If they enjoy the subject they will work hard, if they work hard they will do well.

Please be advised, however, that universities in the United States of America have additional subject requirements. If you are considering applying to universities in America, you are strongly advised to choose at least one of the following subjects from Humanities and Arts.

• Humanities: Business Studies, Geography, or History (with History strongly recommended)

• Arts: Art & Design or Music
