English as a Second Language What will I gain from studying this subject? This is a course for International Students only, who do not consider English to be their first language. Students will be given the opportunity to obtain an internationally recognised Cambridge English Certificate and an IGCSE (the latter only if they complete their full Year 11 studies at Rendcomb). (Please note that there is an additional EAL charge for the full 2 year course.)
How will my work be assessed? Preparation work will be assessed regularly through exam style questions in class and prep. Students will work towards their Cambridge First Certificate in English (FCE) during Year 10 using CEFR grades C1-A2, and then focus on their IGCSE English as a Second Language (ESL) in Year 11 using IGCSE grades 9-1.
