Dear Parents,
Key Stage 4 Years 10 & 11 at Wellington International School
Our aim at GEMS Wellington International School is to provide each and every one of our students
with a broad and balanced KS4 curriculum that is tailored to the individuals needs, and that leads to
a range of possibilities and opportunities for their education Post-16.
The Key Stage 4 courses and the way they are taught at Wellington are designed to best prepare your
child for their future and we hope that you and your child will find that they meet your needs and
ambitions.
The purpose of this booklet is to give you all the information you need about the exciting range of
courses your child could study in Years 10 and 11 (Key Stage 4). We hope you will find it not only
interesting but a useful reference tool throughout the two years of Key Stage 4. It will show you at a
glance the various subjects on offer, the areas of study and key skills in need of development for
each; and how each course is structured and assessed. Some subjects are of course compulsory.
Hopefully, the programme we have developed to assist students in choosing Options, including this
booklet and our Key Stage 4 Curriculum Evening on 25th November, will answer many of your
questions about this important stage in your childs life. If you still have queries or need further
information, then do not hesitate to contact the Curriculum Leader for the subject or Ms Murray
Head of Year 9 (s.murray_wis@gemsedu.com), and please remember to take a look at the Year 9
weebly pages (www.wellingtoninternationaldubai.weebly.com).
On behalf of all the staff at Wellington International School, I would like to wish your son/daughter
every success as they embark on this new and exciting phase of their education.
With kind regards
Kathryn Dyche-Nichols

The Key Stage 4 Curriculum at WIS

Wellington International School is committed to the provision of a broad and balanced curriculum
to meet the needs of all students and allow all to succeed at GCSE level and beyond into Post 16
education. We are committed, furthermore, to ensuring that all our learners acquire and develop
the necessary skills and experience needed for University and the world of work.
As in previous years, we shall be offering a wide range of GCSE and IGCSE subjects for our students
in Years 10 and 11. In addition, and by way of developing our curriculum offer to meet the needs of
all learners, we also offer a range of Level 2 BTEC qualifications.
Compulsory Subjects
All students study the following subjects:
GCSEs in English Language and English Literature
IGCSE Mathematics (a selection of pathways)
GCSE Science (a selection of pathways)
Physical Education (Core PE)
Islamic Education or PSHE
During the two Core PE lessons per week, students participate in a number of activities, ranging
from competitive sports to those promoting and developing health and fitness.
One lesson of PSHE supports the overall development of students. Topics covered include careers
education and work related learning, health education, study skills and target setting. This is further
enhanced by a Curriculum Enrichment Programme (CEP) during Tutor time every week.
Muslim students attend two lessons of Islamic Education per week, one during PSHE and the other
during a lesson of Core PE, and follow the Ministry of Education curriculum.
Optional Subjects
Students are required to select four subjects that they would like to study. Students need to choose
one subject from each of the timetabled blocking groups to ensure that they study a broad and
balanced curriculum. Subjects on offer are Arabic, Art and Design, Astronomy, Business Studies,
Business BTEC, Computer Science, Creative Media Design BTEC, Dual Language (French and
Spanish), Drama, Economics, Film Studies, French, Geography, History, Media Studies, Music,
Physical Education, Psychology, Spanish, Health and Social Care BTEC (by invite only) and Additional
Studies (by invite only). Some of these subjects are by invite only to serve the needs of specific
students.
It is also a compulsory requirement of the Ministry of Education that students who are studying
Arabic A at Key Stage 3 must choose that Option at Key Stage 4.

An Introduction to GCSE and IGCSE
GCSE is the acronym for the General Certificate of Secondary Education.
IGCSE is the acronym for International General Certificate of Secondary Education. This
qualification is equivalent to the GCSE. At WIS we encourage the development of
international-mindedness and global awareness of our students. The IGCSE programme
offers an international perspective and at the same time retains the qualities of its UK
equivalent. It is an excellent route to the IB Diploma, A Levels and other vocational
qualifications providing students with a solid base for advanced study.
GCSEs and IGCSEs are generally undertaken over the two years of Key Stage 4, i.e. Years 10
and 11. There are some exceptions where the subjects start in Year 9 and are examined
early e.g. in Maths. Further details are in the subject pages in this booklet.
Both IGCSEs and GCSEs are designed to examine all ability ranges with grades ranging from
G to A* (A* is the highest level of attainment) in all subjects except English, where the
grading will change from August 2017.
In English GCSE Grades for the current Year 9 cohort will range from 1 to 9, with 1 being the
lowest and 9 the highest. Grade 4 will be equivalent to a current Grade C and Grades 8 and
9 will split the current Grade A* into two groups.
No other GCSE or IGCSE for the current Year 9 cohort at WIS is affected by the changes to
GCSES in the UK. For further information on the new grading system at GCSE please watch
the short video from AQA:
http://www.aqa.org.uk/news-and-policy/policy/gcse-and-a-level-changes/structure-of-new-gcses
Examination boards based in the UK and used by WIS are AQA, EDEXCEL, WJEC and CIE.
Students will be entered for their examinations early in Year 11. Further details regarding
the timings and cost of these examinations will be provided as soon as the information
becomes available but parents should be aware that examinations run from Monday to
Friday and cannot be changed. The approximate cost of examinations is 300Dhs per subject,
with Music and PE at 700Dhs. There are, however, further charges for some subjects where
a moderator is needed.
5 GCSEs at grades A* - C are often used as a benchmark of reasonable attainment for

students of average ability, with an expectation that English Language and Mathematics are
included. We set aspirational and realistic targets with our students which ensure that the
vast majority achieve well in excess of average attainment.
Many GCSE and IGCSE courses have an element of coursework or internal assessment
known as Controlled Assessment which is prepared in class and at home but completed
under examination conditions in school. Tasks are marked by our teachers then externally
moderated by the examination board. All controlled assessments must be completed before
examinations can be undertaken. These pieces of work must be completed under direct
supervision and cannot be taken home. Although the amount of coursework varies from
subject to subject, all of it requires students to work independently over a period of time. It
is essential that students manage their time effectively from the start of their GCSE courses
to avoid a build-up of coursework deadlines.
Under new regulations all GCSEs are linear in nature with assessments at the end of the two
years of study although with IGCSEs there is more flexibility. Further information can be
found at www.ofqual.gov.uk and in the subject pages of this booklet.
The English Baccalaureate (EBacc) is not a separate qualification. To meet EBacc criteria, a
student must have obtained a grade A* to C in English, maths, two sciences, history or
geography (referred to as humanities), and a modern foreign language. Although it is
possible for students to opt out of a language at GCSE level, when they move to the IB
Diploma or Courses in the 6th Form they must all study one language. Further information
about the EBacc can be found at
http://www.education.gov.uk/schools/performance/secondary_13/s4.html.
Introduction to BTEC Level 2 Extended Certificates

What are BTEC qualifications?
BTECs are work-related qualifications suitable for a wide range of students. They provide a
practical, real-world approach to learning without sacrificing any of the essential subject
theory.
BTECs courses and qualifications have existed for over 25 years and continue to be
developed and updated by, with and for industry and in response to the needs of learners.
There are currently over 60 BTEC First qualifications available, linked to industry sectors. The
BTEC First is suitable for students aged pre-16 and is designed for those who are capable of
achieving A* C grade GCSEs, but wish to focus on a work related vocational qualification or
work area.
BTEC Firsts are Level 2 qualifications which are the equivalent of traditional GCSEs grades
A*- C.
BTEC courses count as two subjects in the Options Choices so that the required number of
learning hours can be fulfilled.
How are BTECs structured?
Each BTEC is made up of units. The number of units is dependent on the level and size of
BTEC being studied.
In order to complete each unit, students must achieve against a set of outcomes. The
assessment criteria address theory with practical exercises. The assessment process is
ongoing, so it allows the student to analyse and improve their own performance through
their course in much the same way as they would in a real workplace.
How are BTECs assessed?
The assessment of BTECs is ongoing and portfolio-based and so often plays to the strength
of those students who perform better through ongoing assessments. Furthermore, they can
be taken as well as and alongside GCSEs.
BTECs are not exam-based qualifications. Exams work well for some students but others find
them rather daunting and struggle to see how they fit into the real world of work. Instead,
students study real-life, work-based case studies and complete projects and assessments,
which contribute to achieving each unit studied.
The projects that students undertake form the basis of their unit results which are graded as
a Pass, a Merit or a Distinction.
How can BTECs be used?
BTECs are recognised by schools, colleges, universities, employers and professional bodies
across the United Kingdom and in over 100 countries worldwide.
BTECs give students the skills they need either to move on to higher education or to go
straight into employment.

Careers and Options Advice

Students are following a six week programme in PSHE lessons to help them make an informed
decision about the best choices to make. In addition, students can have discussions with subject
teachers, Heads of Subjects, tutors, Ms Murray, family and friends.
A series of corridor assemblies are also taking place over the next few weeks in which Heads of
Subject are being given the opportunity to describe and explain their subjects to Year 9 students.
In addition to this, for those subjects that are not taught at Key Stage 3, we have a series of taster
sessions set up in which students are given short lessons in Business, Film, Media, Psychology and
Economics. This should allow the students to make a more informed choice for the future.

English Literature
GCSE AQA 9717
Course Description
All students begin Year 10 studying towards this GCSE. However, some students will not take the
GCSE Literature examination, instead focusing on English Language GCSE in order to maximise their
chances of success. It is essential that all students achieve a C grade at GCSE English Language due
to its importance in allowing access to sixth form entry.
Students will be encouraged to develop knowledge and skills in reading, writing and critical
thinking. Through literature, students have a chance to develop culturally and acquire knowledge of
the best that has been thought and written. Studying GCSE English Literature should encourage
students to read widely for pleasure, and as a preparation for studying literature at a higher level.
GCSE English Literature students will be taught to:
read a wide range of classic literature fluently and with good understanding, and make
connections across their reading

13
Mathematics Pathways
There are two pathways for students to take in Mathematics at Wellington. The pathways are
decided by virtue of the students sets in Year 9.
Most Students
Most students at Wellington begin the IGCSE course in Year 9. The first year focuses mainly on the
foundation topics of the course. Half way through year 10 students begin to work on the higher A*,
A and B grade topics. These students sit their exam at the end of Year 11.
Accelerated Students
Students in the top two sets in Year 9 move through the course at a faster rate and these become
the accelerated groups. These students move onto the higher graded topics towards the end of
Year 9.
They will sit their IGCSE examination at the end of Year 10 and then have the option to take GCSE
Further Mathematics or GCSE Statistics in Year 11. Examinations for both of these courses take
place at the end of Year 11.
To study Further Mathematics students need to attain an A* grade at IGCSE.
Future Pathways
Following on from the IGCSE courses students will be required to study Mathematics for the IBDP.
The courses options and requirements are as follows:
IB Higher Level Mathematics students are required to have an A* at IGCSE
IB Standard level Mathematics students are required to have a minimum of a grade A at IGCSE
IB Mathematical Studies Standard Level students are required to have a minimum of a grade C at

Science Pathways
The Science courses at GWIS are designed to meet the diverse aims and ambitions of all students. There are
four pathways at GCSE, aiming to maximize the potential and achievement of all students. Depending on
which path the students take, they can work towards GCSE qualifications in Biology, Chemistry, Physics,
Human Health and Physiology, Astronomy, Science and Additional Science. Every one of these qualifications
offers a full GCSE grade. All students will start to study elements of the GCSE Biology, Chemistry and Physics
courses midway through Year 9.
Pathway 1: These students will need to take the Option in Astronomy and will have nine lessons per week.
They will work towards three Separate Sciences leading to GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics plus an
additional GCSE in Astronomy. In order to be accepted onto this Option students will need to have
demonstrated a commitment to study Sciences at Key Stage 3, with the necessary work ethic. We
particularly recommend this pathway for our most able physicists and those students considering careers in
physics or engineering. Details of the Astronomy Option are in the Options section of this booklet.
Pathway 2: These students will need to take the Option in Human Health and Physiology and will have nine
lessons per week. They will work towards three Separate Sciences leading to GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry
and Physics plus an additional GCSE in Human Health and Physiology. In order to be accepted onto this
Option students will need to have demonstrated a commitment to study Sciences at Key Stage 3, with the
necessary work ethic. We particularly recommend this pathway for our most able scientists. Details of the
Human Health and Physiology Option are in the Options section of this booklet.
Pathway 3: All students who do not opt for Pathway 1 or 2 will start on Pathway 3. This offers three
Separate Science GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics taught over six lessons per week. We do, of
course, realise that not everyone has the same aptitude for Science and so some students will be invited to
take Pathway 4 at some point over the Key Stage 4 course.
Pathway 4: These students will take two GCSEs (Dual Award). This pathway allows some students to work at
a pace matched to their needs with three specialist science teachers over six lessons per week. Students will
gain Science and Additional Science GCSEs.
Future Pathways
The Science department offer a choice of 6 different IB subjects and good GCSE grades in any of the Science
pathways will allow access to any of the courses. We offer IB Biology, Chemistry and Physics standard or
higher level courses. At standard level we also offer Environmental Systems and Societies, Sports, Health
and Exercise or General Science courses.
All our GCSE and IB Science courses ensure that the students gain excellent academic skills which are sought
after by all future employers. The attributes of critical analysis, forward thinking, evidence based research,
academic rigor, teamwork, and communication skills that a science student has to demonstrate are noted as
the top qualities that future employers are looking for. Indeed it is often preferred for students to have a
background of science in order to achieve maximum success in these areas.
Our Science graduates have gone on to study a vast variety of courses and careers including Medicine,
Dentistry, Finance, Business, Veterinary Science, Astrophysics, Law, Engineering, Forensics, Criminology,
Marine Biology, Disease Research Development, Biochemistry, Chemical Engineering, Physiotherapy,
Optometry, Personal Trainer, Meteorology, Aviation Inspector, Pilot, Zoologist, Anthropology, Pharmacology,
Pharmacist, banking, law, financial advisors, marketing and accounting.

25%). All units will be taken in the summer of Year 11.
Each examination paper is one hour in length and consists of closed questions, structured questions
and questions needing longer answers. The CAU will include sections on planning, developing, and
carrying out an investigation plus an analysis and evaluation of results.
Future Pathways
The Biology GCSE course provides a good foundation for all students wishing to pursue their careers
in a science discipline in particular those who wish to enter into healthcare professions or research
into curing disease. The skills learnt through studying Biology will also ensure students are able to
critically analyse claims and data and discuss their validity and possible impacts on society. Skills
sought after by employers in law and business sectors.

with completely different and individual outcomes. Creating autonomous learners is one of the key
aims of the Art department at GWIS. GCSE Art and Design follows the AQA syllabus.
The course is set into two units of work; unit one is internally set and unit two is set by the exam
board. Throughout Year 10 and 11 students are taught a wide variety of techniques, processes, use
of media and different materials. In the second term of year eleven students will start their
externally set assignment. This will conclude with a ten hour exam where students will produce a
final examination piece.
Visits to art galleries, museums and student study days are a compulsory part of the creative
experience. A final year public exhibition of course and examination work will be held in school for
parents and dignitaries. This exhibition is mainly for Year 11 students, however some exemplary
Year 10 work will also be shown. Prizes will also be awarded.
