Advanced Level Courses at SIS Alex
Advanced Level Courses at SIS Alex
At SIS Alex we offer a range of subjects at AS and A2 Level; we vary these from year to year, depending on students’ needs and preferences. Whilst it is not possible to guarantee every combination of subjects, we ask students for their preferences early in their IGCSE year and design the curriculum accordingly.
We are offering the following subjects (subject to sufficient student interest to make the course offer viable).
- ENGLISH
- MATH
- PHYSICS
- CHEMISTRY
- BIOLOGY
- COMBINED SCIENCEs
- BUSINESS
- ECONOMICS
- ART/DESIGN
- LITERATURE
- COMPUTER SCIENCE
- ICT
- ARABIC
- FRENCH
- GERMAN
We must have a minimum of 6 students committed to a subject before we will agree to offer it; exceptions to this policy will be considered by the guidance team only if the course is an absolute pre- requisite for future study. We limit the number of courses, because Advanced Level studies are significantly harder than IGCSE.
Except where otherwise indicated, students must achieve at least a grade C at IGCSE in the subject before they can proceed to an AS Level in that subject. The AS level must be studied in the first year and the A2 level the following year, in order to achieve a full A Level in the subject.
