What is the IGCSE?
The IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) is a qualification for students aged 14 to 16. Cambridge (CAIE), Pearson Edexcel and Oxford AQA all offer it. Many British curriculum schools in Dubai teach it across Years 10 and 11.
Most students sit their exams in the May/June series, and Cambridge also runs an October/November series. Cambridge mostly grades from A* to G. Pearson Edexcel and Oxford AQA grade from 9 to 1, with 9 the highest.
Our online IGCSE tutors teach to your child's exact board and syllabus code. Lessons use real past paper questions and mark schemes, so your child learns what examiners want to see.
When are IGCSE exams in the UAE?
IGCSE exams in Dubai follow each exam board's international calendar. Knowing the key dates helps you plan when your child should start tutoring.
Most students sit IGCSE exams between late April and early June. Cambridge also runs an October to November series, which some students use for resits.
June series results come out in mid to late August, for both Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel. Results for the Cambridge November series come out in January.
Starting in Year 10 gives your child time to fix weak topics before mocks. Others start in January of Year 11 to prepare for the summer exams.
What do Dubai families say about our IGCSE tutors?

"Super helpful for IGCSE Math! Went from C to A in my mocks."
"We were really worried about our son chemistry paper 4 revision because he was scoring around 50 percent only in school assessments. The tutor… took so many past papers with him and showed proper exam techniques according to Cambridge rubric."
