Accelerated IGCSE Pathway
Could CGA's IGCSE Pathway Be Right for Your Child?
CGA's online IGCSE pathway can be particularly well suited to students who:
2
Need greater flexibility
A traditional school timetable doesn't work around their other commitments or circumstances.
3
Want greater academic choice
They want to build a subject combination around their strengths, interests and future goals, and refuse to be limited by their school
4
Benefit from smaller classes
They thrive with greater access to their teachers and more individual attention.

What Singapore Families Say About CGA
“CGA has given me the flexibility to pursue two passions at an elite level: chess and violin while still keeping up with school. I've been able to travel across the world for competitions, and yet still continue learning along the way and continue learning both inside and outside the classroom.”
