Cambridge International AS and A Levels use a wide range of assessment process and techniques to supplement formal written examinations – orals, practicals, projects and coursework of differing types are all used in various subjects where they are the most effective and appropriate means of measuring attainment.
Teachers adopt new technology in teaching using Interactive board and multimedia. This method of teaching enables the students to have a concrete understanding of the topic as they are able to see actual photographs or view the videos of the specific unit for study. Students have access to the computer, tablets and the internet facility to complete their assignments.
Simple project assignments are given to the students after a particular topic has been taught. This enables the students to “Learn by Doing”. This project is planned for individual students or for groups of three to five students.
Field trips are organized for the students to visit places, gardens, museums or study sites on the school campus to make learning an unforgettable experience.
Periodic assessments are conducted and students are graded based on their performances. The school follows a system of continuous evaluation and regularly provides parents with an assessment of their child’s academic progress, based on a comprehensive system of reviews, reports and parent-teacher meetings.
