IGCSE(INTERNATIONAL GENERAL CERTIFICATE OF SECONDARY EDUCATION)
IGCSE stands for International General Certificate of Secondary Education. It offers English language curriculum to students for them to get prepared for the IB, BTEC and A-Level curricula. The IGCSE is regarded as an international alternative to many national curricula. Its qualifications are usually based on the individual subjects.
Pearson Edexcel’s IGCSE at DPIRS was introduced for its learners from grade VIII- X in 2011-2012 . The syllabus puts emphasis on developing critical thinking, analytical skills, communication skills, investigative abilities, problem-solving techniques, teamwork, independent research and other qualities valued by all international universities. DPIRS campus is well-connected by its 24×7 internet and Wi-Fi activation which will help the students during their academic research and preparations. As the number of students is limited in each classroom, the student-teacher ratio is ideal for the IGCSE syllabus.
DPIRS also caters its service to all its students through special care, intensive coaching and individual care. This is preferred by IGCSE aspirants as it conducts both June and January series of the IGCSE/IAL exams. DPIRS alumni are globally placed and socially bound while leading their life beautifully and meaningfully.
