The table below shows the standard system in the UK and that offered by the majority of the UK boarding schools with whom we work. A levels and IB are offered in the UK as the main qualification to gain entry to a British or indeed any university system globally. The Bright World Admissions team will match your academic history, level and age group with the right course. The standard academic year begins in September and is made up of three terms. Differences in school systems and insufficient level of English often means that some students dont fit exactly with the traditional system. In this case we can recommend courses with flexible start dates and schools offering English language support.
