Cambridge IGCSE & A-Level

World-Class Qualification

The World's Most Trusted International Qualification

Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level are the gold standard of international education — recognized by over 2,000 universities worldwide. At Brookwood Homeschool & Tuition Centre, we deliver these programmes through our virtual learning platform, whether your child is a full-time homeschooler or needs tuition support alongside regular school.

Whether your child is just starting their IGCSE journey or gearing up for A-Levels, our structured approach ensures they're exam-ready, confident, and well-prepared for university.

What's Covered at Each Level

Cambridge Lower Secondary (Ages 11–14)

A bridging programme that develops subject knowledge and critical thinking skills, laying a solid foundation for IGCSE. Students explore English, Maths, Sciences, and Humanities through inquiry-based learning.

Cambridge IGCSE (Ages 14–16)

The world's most popular international qualification for 14–16 year olds. Students typically take 7–9 subjects, graded A*–G against global benchmarks. Equivalent to Kenya's O-Level or the UK's GCSE.

Cambridge International A-Level (Ages 16–19)

A two-year deep-dive into 3–4 specialist subjects. A-Levels are the primary gateway to university admission globally. Students develop university-level study skills and subject mastery.

How Exams Work for Homeschool & Tuition Students

One of the most common questions we get: how do students sit for Cambridge exams while studying at home or attending tuition? Here's exactly how it works:

  • We register students as private candidates at approved Cambridge exam centres
  • Exams are sat in-person at designated centres in Nairobi, Mombasa, and other major cities
  • Exam timetables are shared at the start of each term — no surprises
  • We provide extensive mock exams and past paper practice before each exam session
  • Results are published online and certificates are issued by Cambridge directly

Cambridge offers three exam series each year. Our academic calendar is aligned to all three:

May / June Main series — most subjects
Oct / Nov Full series — most subjects
Feb / Mar Selected subjects only
