NOTE: Some schools have “INTERNATIONAL” in their name even though they offer one of the local school curriculums (ICSE, SSC, CBSE, etc).
IB, CIE Programmes In International Schools In Mumbai
International schools in Mumbai offer mainly 2 International Education Programs/Curriculum/Syllabus/Courses. These are International Baccalaureate (IB) and University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE).
International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme
Geneva based International Baccalaureate (IB) offers four international educational programmes for children between the ages of 3 to 19. Among the four IB programs, “IBDP” is the most popular among IB schools in Mumbai.
- Primary Years Programme (PYP): From grade/standard KG to 5, for children of ages 3 to 12.
- Middle Years Programme (MYP): From grade/standard 6 to 10, for children of ages 11 to 16.
- International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP): From grade/standard 11 to 12, for children of ages 16 to 19.
- Career-related Programme (CP): From grade/standard 11 to 12, for children of ages 16 to 19.
International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) (grade 11 and 12) is recognized by Indian colleges and universities. International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma has been recognized by the Association of Indian Universities since 1983. This recognition was renewed in 2010 and it applies to all universities in India. Students intending to take up medicine may need to take up extra science courses. Indian colleges and universities require percentage marks for standard 12, which is not the grading system for IB. For Indian students International Baccalaureate has a provision of providing Indian equivalent percentage for the IB Diploma Programme.
Middle Years Programme (MYP) for grade/standard 10 is recognized by Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, Association of Indian Universities, Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE), Council of Boards of School Education in India (COBSE) and other Indian Education boards.
Parents and students should note that results for International Baccalaureate Programmes come out later than many equivalent Indian boards.
Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) Programme
Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) is the largest provider of international education programmes in the world for children between the ages of 5 to 19. CIE is part of the University of Cambridge, UK.
Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) is formally known as University of Cambridge International Examinations. “IGCSE” is the most popular program among international schools in Mumbai that offer CIE.
- Cambridge Primary (CP): From grade/standard KG to 5, for children of ages 5 to 11. Cambridge Primary is sometimes called Cambridge Primary Programme (CPP) and Cambridge International Primary Programme (CIPP)
- Cambridge Secondary 1 (CS1): From grade/standard 6 to 8, for children of ages 11 to 14.
- Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE): From grade/standard 9 to 10, for children of ages 14 to 16. IGCSE is sometimes called Cambridge Secondary 2 (CS2). CIE also offers Cambridge “O“ Level for this age group.
- Cambridge International AS (Advanced Subsidiary) and A (Advanced) Level: From grade/standard 11 to 12, for children of ages 16 to 19. CIE also offers Cambridge “Pre-U“ for this age group.
The IGCSE exam (standard 9 and 10) is recognized by Indian schools, colleges, universities and education boards. Students taking the IGCSE in a minimum of 5 subjects are considered on par with students from State Boards, ICSE, and CBSE. Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education accept IGCSE for admission to Junior Colleges (standard 11 and 12) in Maharashtra.
Cambridge International Examinations “AS” (Advanced Subsidiary) and “A” (Advanced) Level are recognized by Indian colleges and universities. The Association of Indian Universities (AIU) and many State Education Boards, including the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, have recognized that certificates issued by Cambridge International Examination. Students intending to pursue engineering and medicine must take Chemistry, Physics, Biology or Mathematics and English at AS Level.
Previously the results for IGCSE used to come out later than Indian board results. Now the IGCSE exams are held earlier to coincide with the Indian education system.
