Coronavirus: Cambridge International axes international A levels and GCSEs – The National

But Cambridge International exams - including Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O-level, Cambridge International AS & A Level and Cambridge AICE Diploma - were separate from the exams mentioned by the British government.. "The situation with the Covid-19 outbreak is changing rapidly," Cambridge International said on its website.. "Today we have taken the difficult decision not to run our international examinations in the May-June 2020 series in any country.". The body said it recognised that pupils had worked hard for their exams and it would work with schools to assess their achievements using "the best available evidence".. Students will receive a grade and a certificate from Cambridge International, given the knowledge and skills they acquired in their study, Cambridge International said.. It will provide an update for schools on Thursday and "as regularly as possible" after that.. More than 10,000 schools in 160 countries sit Cambridge International exams.. It paved the way for UAE students to take up university places after the cancellation of the annual exams in the country..
