The Cambridge International Curriculum sets a global standard for education, recognised by universities and employers worldwide. It is flexible, challenging, and inspiring, balancing cultural sensitivity with an international perspective.
At Andrews Academy, we offer the internationally acclaimed Cambridge IGCSE, AS, and A Levels, providing students with the skills and knowledge needed for university success and beyond.
Designed for students aged 14 to 16, the Cambridge IGCSE curriculum develops critical thinking, enquiry, and problem-solving skills. Equivalent to the British GCSE, it is recognised worldwide by universities and employers.
The Cambridge AS and A Levels are internationally recognised qualifications that prepare students for top universities worldwide. AS Level is typically taken in Grade 12, while A Level is completed in Grade 13.
Important: These are the minimum requirements for an exemption letter from Universities South Africa (USAf). Specific faculty requirements may vary, so we recommend checking with individual universities.
