High-School For Al Khobar

High-School For Al Khobar

Al-Hussan International School offers a world class educational program through all key stages. At high school level, we have three academic streams:

The High School Diploma (Compulsory)

IGCSE and A Levels (By Choice)

IB Diploma Program  (By Choice)

The students in the High school have an open choice to choose between the three programs. All students in the high school are registered for the High School diploma and therefore, need to fulfill the school’s graduation requirements.

At the beginning of Grade 11, students have the option of studying for the IB Diploma.

All students in Grade 11 and 12 are encouraged to sit for SAT1 Examination, however, this is optional. 

 

Grade 9 and Grade 10 courses are from Cambridge International Examination Board IGCSE syllabus in all major subjects.  Minor subject programs have been developed in-house and are vertically and horizontally aligned.  In Grade 9 all subjects are compulsory but in Grade 10 students have a choice of subjects.

 

Grade 11 and Grade 12 courses are from Cambridge International Examination Board, AS and A2 in all major subjects.  Minor subject programs have been developed in-house and are vertically and horizontally aligned.  In Grade 11 and Grade 12 English is compulsory. In Grade 11 students choose 4 subjects at AS level and in Grade 12, students choose 3 subjects at A2 level.  American College Board Examinations such as SAT I and TOEFL are also taken during these years.

 

On completion of Grade 12 and meeting the school graduation requirements students obtain a High School Diploma.  Each year all our students gain entry to competitive universities around the world.

The sequence in curriculum ensures that the expected outcomes of learning of each grade build on those of the previous grade level.

The school year is divided into three trimesters. The timings are from Sunday to Thursday 7:40 am – 2:30 pm.

High School students from Grade 10 onwards now have three parallel systems i.e. The Internal School System, Cambridge International Examinations and the IB.

Students continue to sit for Term 1 and Term 2, however, in Term 3, students sit for MOCK Exams, which are Revision Exams.
