A Level Campus
Your Runway to the World's Top Universities — Cambridge International AS & A Levels at PEMS.
Where the PEMS Journey Takes Flight
The A Level Campus is PEMS' newest campus — and the final piece of a journey that now runs unbroken from preschool all the way to the university gate. It exists for one purpose: to turn ambitious 16–19 year olds into confident, independent scholars who can hold their own anywhere in the world.
Here, learning looks different. Small classes and seminar-style teaching replace rows of desks with real academic conversation — you will be asked what you think, and expected to defend it. Alongside your subjects, we deliberately build the independent study skills, research habits and self-discipline that universities assume and A Levels demand.
Every A Level student receives dedicated university and career guidance from day one. For our IGCSE graduates, this campus is the natural next step; for students joining us from other schools, it is a fresh start among Eagles who aim high — and soar higher.

Understanding Cambridge International AS & A Levels
Cambridge International AS & A Levels are a rigorous two-year, pre-university programme — the qualification that opens doors at leading universities in over 130 countries. Typically, our students study 3–4 subjects chosen from our offering, going deep rather than wide, exactly as universities expect.
Year 1 — AS Level
The first year leads to the AS Level — a respected qualification in its own right that can stand alone, or count as the first half of the full A Level. It gives every student a clear, early milestone and honest feedback on their trajectory.
Year 2 — A2
The second year (A2) builds on AS foundations and completes the full A Level. Content deepens, questions get harder, and students graduate with the analytical maturity of a first-year university student.
Grading & Assessment
A Levels are graded A*–E (AS Levels: a–e), assessed by written examinations set and marked by Cambridge Assessment International Education. Every grade carries the same weight, whether earned in Gaborone, London or Singapore.
