A foundation for progression

Cambridge Lower Secondary provides excellent preparation for Cambridge Upper Secondary and other educational programmes. Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint tests can be used to monitor learners’ readiness for the next stage of education.

International curriculum

Appropriate and relevant internationally, Cambridge Lower Secondary has been designed to be culturally sensitive. It includes top-quality teaching and assessment resources appropriate for teaching and learning in local and international schools.

Cambridge Lower Secondary is typically for learners aged 11 to 14 years. It gives schools a flexible framework for developing skills and understanding in English as a first or second language, mathematics, science, Cambridge Global Perspectives and ICT Starters.

Benefits for your child

Cambridge Lower Secondary starts learners on an educational journey for their first years of secondary education, increasing their knowledge and skills at each stage. It provides a natural progression for children from primary education and prepares them for post-14 education programmes that lead to formal qualifications.

A number of progress checks are built into the Cambridge Lower Secondary programme, which enable teachers to monitor your child's development. The emphasis of tests is on showing where your child is on their own learning journey, rather than simply getting right or wrong answers.

Cambridge Checkpoint tests can be taken in the final year of Cambridge Lower Secondary. These tests are available in English, English as a Second Language, Mathematics and Science, and are marked in Cambridge, England.

On completion of Cambridge Checkpoint, your child will receive a statement of achievement and detailed feedback on their strengths and weaknesses. This helps your school to advise on different progression routes after age 14 and choose the one that will be most suitable for your child.

We have students studying in our Cambridge Section from Belgium, England, Georgia, Hong Kong, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, Nigeria, South Africa, UAE and USA.

The Cambridge dictionary describes inequality as, “the unfair situation in society when some people have more opportunities than the others”. In an effort to correct inequalities in society, we introduced this club in school to familiarize students with the different types of inequalities – gender, economic, religious, or otherwise – that exist in society, help build empathy and appreciation of one’s own privilege, and most importantly, inspire students to take action. It aims to introduce students to new ideas, break stereotypes, get them to think critically about the socio-political construct in which they operate, and build their capacity to advocate for change.
