IGCSE stands for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education. It is the world’s most popular international qualification for 14-16 year olds, taken in more than 160 countries. More than 3000 schools worldwide offer IGCSEs and many of the top UK independent schools have recently switched to IGCSEs. The IGCSE is recognised around the world by employers and universities as evidence of academic ability.
The IGCSE programme at Nexus is designed to prepare learners for the transition to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP).
If you’re starting your first degree you’ll have plenty of courses to choose from across our three campuses, including online study options.
We welcome students from all over the world. We’re home to more than 6,000 international students from over 100 countries.
