Year 12 and 13 take the Cambridge AS & A Level subjects at the age of 17-18. A Level stands for Advanced Level and AS stands for Advance Subsidiary Level. An AS  Level contains half the content of the corresponding A Level and is normally completed in one year. This allows for flexibility, as learners can complete AS Levels as qualifications in their own right. Learners take all the assessments for their full A Level at the end of the second year. 

A Levels are highly specialised and students will normally take three subjects, although occasionally exceptional students take four or five. They are the ‘gold standard’ of Cambridge, and can act as entry qualifications by universities of the European Union and elsewhere around the world. 

A Level examinations are usually taken after 13 years of education and are based on approximately 360 hours of guided learning per subject, normally over a two year period. Welling Gen International provides all the textbooks to enrolled students. Our library is also open to them. To apply, click the button below.
