School exams

As a student or parent, are you interested in UK school exams? These include:

• International GCSEs
• IGCSEs
• O levels
• AS levels
• A levels

We work with three UK awarding bodies (Cambridge Assessment International Education, Pearson, OxfordAQA) to offer these exams internationally. In a number of countries we work with approved schools who prepare their students for these exams. We can also cater for students who want to sit these exams as private candidates, although not in all countries.

If as a school you are interested in offering these qualifications to your students, you will need to contact the awarding body you are interested in. As an approved centre attached to the British Council, you will become a British Council Partner School. 

Students, parents and schools wanting to find out more about UK school qualifications should look at the information on the awarding body websites, as listed below. They should also contact their local British Council office to find out which UK school exams are available in their country (this will vary from country to country).
