Education at the Complex of Silesian International Schools is based on the guidelines of Cambridge Assessment International Education, which for our institution is the body supervising the correct implementation of the Cambridge programme.

Three and four-year-old children start their adventure with the programme and, realizing the assumptions of pre-school education, prepare to become full-fledged participants of the Cambridge Primary programme as five-year-olds, and then, as older students, Cambridge Lower Secondary.

The fourth stage of the Cambridge programme, i.e. Cambridge Upper Secondary, concludes the education in the system, and in our institution is referred to as IGCSE. The IGCSE exams summarize the three years. They are the basis for qualifying the student for the two-year International Baccalaureate programme - IB Diploma Programme.
