Secondary

When students transition into Secondary School at Cambridge School of Bucharest, they are encouraged to develop a deeper understanding of a range of studies while also fostering independence, resilience, and personal commitment.

Key Stage 3 (Years 7-9)

At CSB, we believe that the best way to learn is by doing. This is why the Key Stage 3 curriculum is developed from the National Curriculum for England and offers a wide variety of subjects, including:

  • English
  • Mathematics
  • Science
  • German, Spanish, French
  • Romanian, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Turkish
  • Geography
  • History
  • Computer Science
  • Art, Music, Drama, Design & Technology
  • PE (Physical Education)
  • PSCHEE

Students study each of these subjects to give them a broad foundation and a taste of what it would be like to study them at IGCSE level. This variety also helps students make informed subject choices at the end of Year 9.

Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11)

WWhen students enter Key Stage 4, they have already made decisions about which subjects they will study for their International General Certificate of Education (IGCSE) diploma. At CSB, students must study the core subjects of English, Maths, History, one Modern Foreign Language, and at least one Science. In addition, they can choose from the following subjects for a minimum of seven areas of study:

  • Economics, Business
  • Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Combined Science
  • History, Geography
  • French, Spanish, German, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Turkish
  • Computer Science
  • Art, Design & Technology, Drama

Our IGCSE courses are taught by subject specialists who have the expertise to guide students to success in their chosen areas of study. At the end of Year 11, students sit their Cambridge International Education (CIE) exams, and based on their results and interests, they make their subject choices for Advanced Subsidiary (AS) courses in Year 12. This approach ensures that each student’s educational journey is tailored to their strengths, passions, and academic goals.
