Flamingo performs well in the 2021 IGCSE

Once again, it gives great pride to share the wonderful news of 2021 IGCSE. The Cambridge Assessment International Examinations (CIE), IGCSE 2021 results were released, on 18th January 2022 and Flamingo Iinternational School (FIS) continues to shine brightly! Cambridge International Examinations IGCSE and GCE – O Levels, are two parts of an internationally recognised curriculum that is celebrated as a rigorous deep, and an engaging course of study. Staff and students spend many hours acquiring knowledge, mastering necessary skills, and grasping conceptual understandings needed for such a demonstrated success in learning.

Moreover, teachers require a high level of knowledge on content and sustained commitment to ensure that students are prepared for the examinations that are equally challenging as they are of a high standard. This curriculum empowers students to be independent, study with integrity, and approach examinations with focus and confidence. With over 30 years of service to schools around the globe, Cambridge International Examinations not only offer an exceptional curriculum for our students at FIS; it also provides a qualification through the IGCSE/O Levels certificate that leaves them with options to study at a tertiary level, both in Botswana and internationally.
