WHAT DOES PRE-U MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Cambridge Pre-U

Cambridge Pre-U is a new UK qualification from Cambridge International Examinations that is an alternative to the current A Level qualification. It is a diploma-type qualification, principally aimed at students aged 16–19, and has recognition for university entrance. Cambridge Pre-U was launched in September 2008, for first assessment in 2010. A number of independent schools such as Downe House School, Charterhouse School, Cranleigh School, Westminster School, Winchester College, Oundle School, Christ's Hospital, Dulwich College, Shrewsbury School, Rugby School and Eton College have replaced A-Levels with Cambridge Pre-Us in some subjects. They are joined by grammar and comprehensive schools, and sixth-form colleges including Simon Langton Girls' Grammar School, Wimbledon College, Coloma Convent Girls' School, King Edward VI School, Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School, Watford Grammar School for Girls, Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys and Lancaster Royal Grammar School. Chavagnes International College, a British school in Kenya, Hillcrest Secondary School, switched to Pre-U in 2011, making it the first centre for these examinations outside the UK.
