Year 10/11 Subject Selection

Foreword

At the core of YCIS’s beliefs lies the ideal that we wish to produce global citizens who will lead the world with a mixture of intelligence, compassion and cultural understanding. To support our students to develop into these leaders, students in the Year 10-11 programme at YCIS engage in a two-year course of study in a range of different subject areas. Students who complete our programme of study are able to access a range of qualifications designed by the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) as part of their internationally renowned secondary programme, the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE). The qualifications are created ‘with an international audience in mind, making them interesting, valuable and relevant for students around the world.’1

The IGCSE qualification is widely recognised in schools, universities and other educational institutions the world over as strong evidence of academic ability. With its combination of courses available and assessment methods, the IGCSE is seen as an ideal preparation for many university entry programmes, such as the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), A Levels and the Advanced Placement (AP) courses.

Students at YCIS are guided and challenged throughout to ensure that each and every student is capable of achieving to their highest possible standard in each subject. With a well thought out course design and a solid commitment to their studies, students enter the Year 12-13 programme with a sufficient breadth of knowledge and skills to enable them to successfully engage in our IBDP programme.

YCIS students also receive a comprehensive education in morals, beliefs and skills. It is our belief

that academics alone does not a successful global citizen make; solid character education is an integral part of this process.

We wish students all the very best in their studies. If you have any questions about this process, please do not hesitate to contact the IGCSE coordinator.

Introduction1

The Programme & Designing your Course

The Year 10 -11 programme at YCIS is a two-year programme of study. There are five compulsory subjects alongside three optional subjects. All subjects are taught through the medium of English, with the exception of Chinese, and at the end of the two-year programme, students will sit for externally assessed examinations. To be considered for entry into the Year 10/11 programme, students must have:

completed Year 9 or the equivalent;a sufficiently high level of English ability as indicated by:

Year 9 English assessments;the English entrance test at our School; ORthe IELTS (check with your local British Council) in your country (Level 4 or higher).

Year 10/11 subjects are grouped into five different categories: Languages, Humanities & Social Sciences, Science, Mathematics and Creative, Technical & Vocational. When choosing your subjects, at least one subject from each group should be included in your final selections. The relevant departments will place students into their English and Chinese classes to account for their individual language learning needs.

Your education and future relies on you making informed, responsible and sensible decisions. The main factors in making

decisions about selection of subjects for parents and students are:

interest in the subject;enjoyment of the subject;willingness to apply oneself to the study of the subject; and ability in the subject.

Parents, teachers and older siblings are a great resource for advice on making subject choices, but the final choice should lie with the student. Students should not choose a subject because their friends are doing it. Course changes cannot be made after the first two cycles of Year 10, so if a student does not enjoy a subject, chances are they will not be as successful. They are the ones who have to attend the classes, complete the assignments and sit the exams.

Students and their families should also take into account their future plans. Looking at how the IGCSE qualification is structured and how this follows on to other programmes is another factor to consider when making your choices. One element which could have an effect on your choices is the International Certificate of Education (ICE) Group Award from CIE. This award, outlined below, is structured in a similar way to IBDP courses and may be of use to students when thinking about their subject groupings.

Overview of IGCSE Subjects

Compulsory SubjectsStudents study five compulsory subjects: Periods per cycle• English: First Language English or English as a Second Language......................................... 6 • Chinese: First Language Chinese or Foreign Language Chinese (Mandarin)...................... 6• Mathematics ................................................................................................................................................6• Science: Coordinated Sciences ............................................................................................................6• Global Perspectives....................................................................................................................................4

In English, students will be placed in First Language English or in English as a Second Language, according to their English language experience and ability. The First Language English option includes the World Literature examination and therefore counts as two IGCSE qualifications. Students taking English as a Second Language may also be selected to study World Literature.

Students may be invited to take Additional Mathematics. This option begins in Year 9 and will result in students sitting for the Cambridge International Mathematics (Extension) as well as the Additional Mathematics examinations.

Optional SubjectsThree optional subjects, taken five periods per cycle, are chosen by each student to complete their course. To ensure that students are getting as broad an education as possible and to keep their options at IB level open, students are advised to choose up to 2 subjects from both group II and V (see next section).

For students whose mother tongue is neither English nor Chinese, we are able to assist families to enter into the examination for some languages. This language will need to be studied in the student’s own time, with a qualified language tutor. Students will not be allowed to receive a reduced school timetable by entering in this syllabus, however we will provide the student with all the necessary syllabus information from CIE to ensure that you are able to adequately prepare for the examination.

Students are reminded that all courses are subject to timetabling, class sizes and teacher constraints.

International Certificate of Education (ICE) Group AwardStudents who take a certain combination of subjects, will be eligible for an extra award: the International Certificate of Education (ICE) Group Award of the IGCSE. This award requires the study of subjects drawn from the five different IGCSE groups, including two languages. There are three levels of achievement in this award:

Distinction: Grade A(a) in five subjects and Grade C(c) or above in two subjectsMerit: Grade C(c) or above in five subjects and Grade F(f ) or above in two subjects.Pass: Grade G(g) or above in seven subjects.

This award shows that students have a broad and balanced curriculum, and flows neatly into the requirements for IBDP course selection.

The entire course will be assessed externally at the end of Year 11 through a series of examination papers. Exactly which papers each student will write depends on individual progress. Students may sit Core or Extension papers for the language component and will receive ongoing advice about their options in this regard.

The assessment for World Literature will have 2 components. The first is a course work component worth 50% of the grade. This will be in the form of a portfolio that each student will complete over the 2 years. The second component is 2 examination papers. In the first paper students will be required to answer a passage-based question on an unseen passage. The second paper will be questions based on the literature texts studied over the course of the 2 years. These types of questions will be extensively practiced throughout the programme.

Resources and Texts

Students’ main texts will be Hodder English 4 (ed. S. Hackman) and English as a First Language for IGCSE (by Lucantoni), which they will use to explore language in a variety of genres. These texts will be supplemented by a range of other texts, such as novels, plays and poems, which will be chosen according to the needs and interests of the students and the prescribed texts, set by the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate.

Additional Comments

The IGCSE English First Language and World Literature programme provides the opportunity for students to develop a broad range of language skills. Students will analyse and evaluate texts in a wide range of genres, including literary works of prose, poetry and drama. They will develop their understanding of effective and accurate language usage and be perceptive of audience, intention, point of view and opinion. In addition to appreciating the skills of others in articulating their ideas effectively, students will develop their own skills in expressing their ideas and communicating their experience correctly and with precision. This will require the expanding of their range of vocabulary and increasing their skills in structuring their written work accurately.Furthermore, students will explore a range of literary texts from a variety of cultures and regions in the world identifying the skills and methods the writers use to construct meaning. These texts will be analysed and interpreted according to a range of criteria and students will express their insights and opinions in accurate, effective writing and speech. Students will explore themes, discuss the social and other implications of the works studied and be able to compare the different criteria of various genres investigated. Students will analyse plot and characterisation and be able to explain how writers achieve their effects. The texts studied will include novels, short stories, poetry and drama.

The programme is designed for students who wish to be considered for the IB English A1 Programme, which is an intensive literature/language-based course of study. Many schools and universities require successful achievement in First Language English as a prerequisite for studying English, and sometimes other subjects, at more advanced levels. It is important students realise the significance of these requirements and set their goals accordingly from the start of their IGCSE studies. The achievement of high grades will require consistent and determined effort from the start of students’ IGCSE programmes.

Other texts are used to support the standard text books.

Additional Comments

This course is a ‘double award’ subject, which means that if students are successful with the external examinations, they will receive an award equivalent to two subjects. The course leads onto the International Baccalaureate (IB) Standard and Higher Level courses in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Design Technology and the Standard level courses offered in Environmental Systems in Years 12 and 13.

The approach taken is integrated between the three sciences. Concepts in one science are connected to concepts and situations in the other two sciences. There is an emphasis on practical work and safety in the laboratory. Students are taught how to problem solve using logical thinking based in scientific principles.

Many schools and universities require high achievement in Science as a prerequisite for studying at more advanced levels. It is important students realise the significance of these requirements and set their goals accordingly from the start of their Year 10/11 studies. The achievement of high grades will require consistent and determined effort throughout the two year course.

For students who demonstrate significant struggles in Science, the Science department reserve the right to modify the learning program and/or make a recommendation that the student complete the IGCSE Combined Science qualification

Subject Title and Code:Graphic Products: Design and Technology 0455Resistant Materials: Design and Technology 0445

Time allocated: 5 periods per cycle

Subject Content:There are 2 options to choose from Within Design Technology. Both options cover the same core content. This includes:

• developing creative thinking in areas relevant to design and technology

• applying problem solving skills to practical and technological problems

• developing the communication skills central to design, making and evaluation

• applying knowledge and understanding to the design and making of products, taking into consideration sustainability and the wider impact on society

• encouraging students to apply learning to areas of personal interest

• developing a range of transferable skills and the attributes of the Cambridge learner

39

• developing the ability to make aesthetic, economic, moral and technical value judgements.

Graphic Products:

This area of study aims to develop the skills that designers use within the context of their design activities in the design studio. It aims to develop an awareness of the importance of communication and modelling techniques concerned with promotion and illustration of ideas and their interrelationship with all stages in commercial manufacture and promotion. Typical graphic products would include packaging, architectural modelling, any product design, manuals, interior design and any graphic design. Modelling is a large part of the course in which you will be expected to choose appropriate materials such as card, plastic or wood to model various 3D items.

Resistant Materials:

This area of study aims to develop the skills which designers use within the context of the materials and their processing. Students will gain practical workshop experience so that they get a broad understanding of materials and their processing. The course will involve the general physical and working properties of common construction materials (plastics, woods and metals) in relation to specific designing and making tasks. They will also study testing materials which will lead to reasoned selection of materials and processes for design and make tasks

All students will do a final project.

AssessmentAssessment will be carried through out the two year course with internal tests and smaller focussed projects to help assess your strengths and weaknesses. This will be backed up with end of year and mock exams which follow the same structure and format of the actual IGCSE exams. This will help give a clear indicator of your final grade. The final examination in Year 11 will consist of two written papers (core and option), a design portfolio and a fully constructed artefact that meets an identified need.

The four main areas for assessment are: a. Knowledge with understandingb. Problem solvingc. Communicationd. Realisation

Additional Comments:Both courses are interesting and exciting courses that build upon the work that you have covered in Lower Secondary in years 7, 8 and 9. The course leads to IB if that is your desire in Year 12. It covers many different areas in design and technology that when combined, produce a well rounded designer, a thinker, a solver of problems.

This is a very useful course for those wishing to follow a design career in all aspects of engineering, designing and architecture.

Music

Subject Title and Code:Music 0410


Subject Content

A. Listening (40%)Students will be encouraged to explore and acquire a wide knowledge of different music, both classical and popular, from the West and from around the world. The study of musical literacy (theory) will be a course feature, in order to enhance students’ technical

understanding of music and to provide a solid basis for composition.

B Performing (30%)Upon commencement of the Music course, students should ideally have already acquired basic competence on an instrument or in formal singing (i.e. approximately ABRSM grade 3 standard). It is, however, possible to begin an instrument at the beginning of the course and reach a passable level by the time of the final examination.

53

C Composing (30%)Students will explore the area of organising sound – i.e. creative composition, in any classical or popular style, refining and notating their ideas to produce a portfolio of work by the end of the course.

Additional Comments

The Music programme provides the opportunity for candidates to acquire and consolidate a range of basic musical skills, knowledge and understanding, through the activities of listening, performing and composing.

The programme also assists candidates to develop a perceptive, sensitive and critical response to the main historical periods and style of Western music and helps candidates to recognise and understand the music of various non-Western traditions, and thus to form an appreciation of cultural similarities and differences.

The programme provides the basis for an informed and lasting love and appreciation of music, a foundation for further study in music for those candidates who wish to pursue their studies at a higher level.

It is considered an essential part of the course requirements that students receive weekly lessons on their chosen instruments with a specialist teacher. The music staff at the school are able to assist recommending and organising suitable teachers.

Students undertaking IGCSE music are required to take part in the performance programme at the school.
