IGCSE Subjects and Exams

From Year 10 to Year 11: Preparing for the Next Step

During Year 10 and Year 11, students prepare for their IGCSEs, sitting the official examinations through Cambridge International Education (CIE) and Pearson Edexcel. In addition, we guide them in their subject choices to ensure they keep their future options open, both in Spain and abroad.

To progress to Year 12 and Year 13 (Sixth Form) at Los Olivos, students must pass 5 IGCSEs as well as the 3 subjects from the Spanish Educational System.

Y si hubiera una sexta estrella,se la daria.Mi hijo ingreso en Septiembre de 2024 y no podemos estar mas contentos.El profesorado es muy amable,profesional y cariñoso. Al llegar por las mañanas un aula en paz aguarda a los niños.Con una metodologia efectiva y un trato tan humano,no se me ocurriria llevar a mi hijo a otro centro.Y pronto matricularemos a la pequeña. Una suerte haber conocido este centro y haber apostado por un profesorado tan cercano, y un metodo de aprendizaje tan eficaz. Gracias,de verdad.

Un colegio verdaderamente humano, mientras que en otros coles nos han cerrado las puertas para el acogimiento escolar por la Dana, aquí nos han acogido con los brazos abiertos, de forma totalmente generosa y nos han hecho sentir súper “Acogidos”. Enhorabuena por vuestra forma de ser, sois únicos!!

El Colegio Británico Los Olivos en Valencia es un lugar excepcional. Es un centro educativo muy acogedor y multicultural en el cual se tiene en cuenta tanto el desarrollo académico como el personal. Al ser un centro familiar el trato con todos los miembros de la comunidad educativa es muy cercano, dándonos a los padres la tranquilidad de que nuestros hijos están en un lugar seguro con grandes profesionales que los atienden en todo momento. Mi hija va feliz al cole cada día desde que empezó en Nursery y ya está en Year 1, eso es un signo de que las cosas se hacen bien.
