The mathematics course in Years 10 and 11 will be a continuation of the Year 9 course.
Students will be entered for either higher or foundation level in the Pearson Edexcel International GCSE in Mathematics (Specification A).
The Pearson Edexcel International GCSE in Mathematics (Specification A) is a linear qualification. It consists of two examinations available at Foundation and Higher Tier. Both examinations must be taken in the same series at the end of the course of study.
The course content is elevant, engaging, up to date and of equivalent standard to Pearson’s regulated GCSE in Mathematics.
The assessment consists of tiers of entry (Foundation and Higher) that allow students to be entered for the appropriate level, with questions designed to be accessible to students of all abilities in that tier and papers that are balanced for topics and difficulty.
The table below gives you an overview of the assessment for this course.
Please note: A Texas Instrument TI 84 Plus calculator is compulsory for most students studying IGCSE Mathematics. This same model will be used for all IB Diploma courses. We will give details of how to purchase this calculator when necessary.
For further information, please see Mr Ian Bengey (ian.bengey@wis.edu.hk), Head of Mathematics.
