Cambridge curriculum at GIIS

What’s special about Cambridge curriculum is that there’s strong emphasis on practical skills and real-world knowledge, ensuring students receive a well-rounded education that prepares them for the future, both inside and outside the classroom.
Seamless transition from Cambridge Pathway to IBDP at GIIS
At GIIS, we prepare students for success in a global economy with academic pathways designed to develop essential 21st century skills. Our Cambridge IGCSE programme in Grades 9 and 10 serves as an excellent foundation for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) in Grades 11 and 12.
Both IBDP and Cambridge IGCSE are recognised internationally for their academic rigour, fostering a global perspective and encouraging critical thinking. The IGCSE encourages students to explore, question, and expand their understanding, which perfectly sets the stage for the in-depth research and critical thinking required in the IBDP.
