ILower Secondary
At BISG, the Pearson Edexcel iLower Secondary programme covers Years 7 to 9, designed for students aged 11 to 14. This stage corresponds to Grade 6 (Year 7), Grade 7 (Year 8), and Grade 8 (Year 9) in the Palestinian National System.
The iLower Secondary curriculum builds upon the strong foundations of iPrimary, engaging students in a broad range of subjects including English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, and Global Citizenship. Rooted in the English International Curriculum and tailored for international learners, it offers a balanced, challenging, and inspiring framework that supports both academic achievement and personal growth.
This stage plays a pivotal role as a stepping stone towards IGCSE, equipping students with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to succeed in more advanced studies. The curriculum encourages analytical thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning, while also cultivating collaboration, creativity, and global awareness.
By the end of iLower Secondary, BISG students are well-prepared to embark on their IGCSE journey with a solid academic foundation and the readiness to thrive in the next stage of their education.
