KEY STAGE 5 (Years 12 & 13)
​
Traill Sixth Form Programme
At Traill International School, our Sixth Form programme offers two distinct pathways to suit a variety of student needs and aspirations: the Traill A-Level Programme and the Traill Diploma Programme. Both are designed to provide an outstanding education, preparing students for higher education and future careers.
​
Programme Overview:
-
Traill A-Level Programme: This pathway follows the Cambridge International A-Level curriculum, regarded as the gold standard for university entrance. A-Levels are recognised globally and open doors to universities worldwide. Students can select from a broad range of subjects, allowing them to focus on areas of interest and strength. Our teachers provide personalised support to ensure each student reaches their full potential.
-
Traill Diploma Programme: An internally assessed, project-based programme, this pathway is ideal for students who excel in practical learning environments. The Traill Diploma emphasises hands-on projects, continuous assessment, and practical applications of knowledge. It is designed to develop skills directly applicable to real-world scenarios and a variety of post-secondary options.
International Recognition
International A Level and AS Level have widespread international recognition as educational qualifications. This recognition is because:
-
international A and AS Level qualifications are recognised by universities as equivalent in value to UK A and AS Levels, in accordance with the Lisbon convention;
-
good grades at A and AS Level can result in one full year of advanced standing or credit at universities in the USA and Canada;
-
good A and AS Level grades are vital for admission to all the world’s major English-speaking universities and many non-English-speaking universities;
-
A and AS Level are rigorous programmes that encourage high academic standards.
Please visit the Cambridge International Examinations website at www.cie.org.uk for more information.
Key Components:
-
Subject Choices: Both pathways offer a wide selection of subjects. The A-Level programme includes subjects such as Mathematics, Sciences, Humanities, and Languages. The Traill Diploma focuses on practical and project-based subjects tailored to students’ interests and future career plans.
-
University Preparation: We provide comprehensive guidance on university applications, including personal statements, interview preparation, and support with standardised tests. Our students have a proven track record of gaining admission to prestigious universities worldwide.
-
Practical Projects: In the Traill Diploma Programme, students engage in projects that promote innovation, problem-solving, and real-world application of knowledge.
-
Pastoral Care: Our robust pastoral care system ensures students receive the emotional and social support they need. We foster a nurturing environment where every student is valued and supported.
-
Extracurricular Activities: Both pathways offer a variety of extracurricular activities, from sports and arts to academic clubs. These encourage students to develop new skills, explore interests, and build lasting friendships.
