O'Levels / IGCSE
In Ziauddin School, students follow the in-house curriculum up to Class VIII, which provides a strong foundation in various subjects. After Class VIII, most students transition to the IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) examinations, which are administered through Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) by the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate. The in-house curriculum (Classes I to VIII) focuses on a comprehensive educational foundation, preparing students for future academic challenges.
It includes core subjects as well as co-curricular activities designed to foster holistic development.
After completing Class VIII, students typically move on to the IGCSE curriculum, which is internationally recognised and offers a wide range of subjects. The IGCSE programme provides a flexible and rigorous academic framework that prepares students for further education and future career opportunities.
This transition from the in-house curriculum to the IGCSE examinations helps students build on their previous learning while adapting to an internationally recognised educational framework.
