The GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) is a flexible two year programme which provides a broad and solid secondary education. The qualification is internationally recognised and is normally obtained after two years study. The programme prepares you perfectly to go on to study A level, International Baccalaureate or University Foundation Programme before you go to university. The CATS College GCSE programme is designed for international students. Classes are taught by subject specialists who are trained in how to teach students who have English as a second language. The course encourages you to explore your academic potential and since it is a broad programme it will give you a chance to investigate where your interests lie.
