What are the benefits of IGCSE, when compared with other examinations that might be taken in classes IX and X?
Firstly, it is an international examination with world-wide status and credibility. Secondly, it encourages – indeed, demands – the questioning and discovery method of learning, rather than relying on rote learning. Thirdly, it provides excellent preparation for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme that SVKM International School students follow in classes XI and XII. Students who have taken the IGCSE Programme will be familiar with the styles of learning and the expectations of the IB. Fourthly, the coursework and practicals provide a strong skill development and application orientation.
