The A-Level syllabus, curriculum structure and examinations are primarily designed and organised by authoritative British examination boards, namely Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) and Edexcel.
As a globally recognised “gold standard education system”, its authority is widely acknowledged internationally. To date, over 5,000 educational institutions worldwide have offered the UK high school curriculum. Due to its scientific rigour and authority, Singapore has directly adopted it as the national unified examination for university entrance, and Hong Kong has also widely introduced this curriculum as an important testing standard for university admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
