The International Award for Young People


Academic Life > Secondary School > Key Stage 4 (Yrs 10 and 11)

During Year 10, students begin the subjects for their examination courses for the next two years. This is based upon a wide range of guidance and advice and is undertaken in close consultation with parents and staff. Students will normally pursue courses to IGCSE (www.cie.org.uk) in nine subjects and are encouraged to maintain a broad and balanced curriculum by building upon a core of the following subjects:

Compulsory:

  • English language/ESL
  • English Literature
  • Mathematics
  • Three or two Sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics)
  • ICT
  • Modern Foreign Languages (French, German, Spanish)
  • PE
Elective:
  • History or Chemistry
  • Geography or Physics
  • Music or Biology
  • Art or Business Studies
Students in Years 10 and 11 are actively encouraged to participate in one of the BIS sports teams. Their PE mark is based on each student's regular attendance and performance. In addition to their academic programme, Year 10 and 11 students are offered a number of extracurricular activities during school hours.
