IGCSEs
NorthStarUK now offers IGCSE qualifications in a wide range of subjects from both Edexcel and CiE exam boards.
This provides our families with lots of flexibility: For overseas families, it means being able to obtain high quality GCSE-level qualifications without the need to return to the UK to sit exams; Students can sit EDEXCEL and CiE IGCSE exams at local centres around the world; Parents are now able to choose the exam board most suited to the exam centres that are local to them; IGCSEs do not require coursework; IGCSEs provide internationally recognised 16+ level qualifications; A growing number of UK examination centres now accept Edexcel and CiE IGCSE candidates.
