English for every student

English Isn't Their First Language? We'll Help.

IGCSE courses are taught and examined in English. Every new student takes an English test, and our English Language Support (ELS) team helps them close any gaps.

After-school boosters: extra English sessions for Year 10 and 11 students.
Until they're ready: support continues until your child can fully join every lesson. An additional fee applies, depending on the level of support.
The right English course: students take either First Language English or English as a Second Language at IGCSE, depending on their level.
