The CIE syllabuses are world class and aimed to create an interesting course of study and a highly relevant qualification. CIE is at the forefront of developments in e-Education, using a new technology in the delivery and assessment of examinations. It is fair to say that good 'A Level' grades can be a key to admission for all the world's major Anglophone universities.
Glendale introduces the IGCSE qualification of CIE.
The International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is the world's most popular international qualification for 14-16 year olds (VIIIth.Grade upwards). It develops successful students, giving them excellent preparation for their next steps in education and equips them with skills for immediate employment. The choice of this syllabus helps in deciding the careers of students, as it makes the subjects more interesting. Instead of just learning facts-that mostly happens in middle school, in the IGCSE system students use their minds and understand the subject. Cambridge IGCSE is recognized by universities and employers worldwide. In some countries, IGCSE satisfies the 'entry requirements' of most of their Universities. In others, it is widely used as a preparation for Advanced Level, IB and US Advanced Placement Courses.
