What formal qualifications are available?<br />

<strong>Wyvern</strong> pupils will be entered for the qualifications which are<br />

most appropriate for them, in relation <strong>to</strong> their ability, personal<br />

preferences, interests and aspirations. The academic package<br />

that we provide is always unique <strong>to</strong> the individual student.<br />

Within our provision, we are able <strong>to</strong> offer a range of formal qualifications,<br />

including GCSE, iGCSE, BTEC, RSL and Pearson Edexcel Functional Skills<br />

qualifications.<br />

GCSE<br />

GCSEs (General Certificates of Secondary Education) are the main qualifications<br />

taken by 14- <strong>to</strong> 16-year-olds in schools and colleges in England, Wales and<br />

Northern Ireland. GCSEs are subject-specific qualifications that mainly involve<br />

studying the theory of a subject combined with some investigative work. Highly<br />

valued by schools, colleges and employers, they are the first step <strong>to</strong>wards a<br />

range of careers or further study and have been used as a benchmark <strong>to</strong> judge<br />

student ability for more than 25 years.<br />

iGCSE<br />

Our pupils can expect <strong>to</strong> achieve outstanding results in iGCSE. International<br />

GCSEs are globally recognised qualifications with academic content and<br />

assessment designed specifically for international learners. iGCSEs deliver a<br />

consistent learning journey for students and teachers, with world class support<br />

services, everywhere in the world.<br />
