IGCSE Subjects


Alongside the core subjects of English Language, Mathematics, and Science, IGCSE students can choose from a range of subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, History, Geography, Business, Computer Science, Music, Art & Design, and French, among others.

IGCSE courses allow pupils to expand their knowledge, helping them grow and develop the skills they will need throughout their lives. Each subject supports the development of key competencies, including literacy, essay writing, organisation of ideas, analytical thinking, evaluation, and numeracy.

In addition, Spanish nationals are required to study Lengua y Cultura, while non-Spanish nationals prepare for the Spanish IGCSE exam. Students also receive instruction in PSHE (Personal, Social, and Health Education) and Physical Education, although these subjects do not lead to IGCSE qualifications.
