Grade 6 pupils of Charterhouse Preparatory School wrote their annual Cambridge primary checkpoint exams recently.
Marketing coordinator for the Maravest Schools, Belinda Espag said these examinations are written globally by all Cambridge International schools.
“These exams indicate a benchmark for the children and the school to compare how they are doing globally,” said Espag.
She added that the exams encompass all the work that has been covered throughout the second stage of a child’s primary school career (Grade 4 to 6).
“These exams are a way of testing the children’s skills and abilities that they have learned over the past three years,” said Espag.
She explained once written, the papers are sent back to the CIE in England where they are marked and moderated.
Children will receive their results that are internationally recognised by universities across the world early in 2016.
Espag concluded and said Charterhouse has been writing the Cambridge International Examinations for several years and have always obtained fantastic results.
