National Curriculum Test

Once again King's College Alicante exceeded the UK average marks at Key Stage 2 (age 10-11) which is particularly pleasing because the overwhelming majority of our children speak English as a foreign language.

The papers are sent to England for marking. The target level for children at the end of Year 6 is Level 4, and for those at the end of Year 9 is Level 5 or 6. Students normally take IGCSE at the end of Year 11, although some subjects may be taken at the end of Year 10.
