IGCSE Global Perspectives 22/23


Young people face unprecedented challenges in an interconnected and information-heavy world, not least in how you will gain a sense of your own active place in the world and cope with changes that will impact on your life chances and life choices.  You will have opportunities to acquire and apply a range of skills to support you in these challenges, including:

  • researching, analysing and evaluating information

  • developing and justifying a line of reasoning

  • reflecting on processes and outcomes

  • communicating information and reasoning

  • collaborating to achieve a common outcome.

    You will explore stimulating topics that have global significance. You will learn to collaborate with others from other cultures, communities or countries. You will assess information critically and explore lines of reasoning. You will learn to direct your own learning and develop an independence of thought.

    Cambridge IGCSE Global Perspectives emphasises the development and application of skills rather than the acquisition of knowledge. You will develop transferable skills that will be useful for further study and for young people as active citizens of the future.
