Insworld Institute

Last Updated on 1 October 2023

Insworld Institute

Founded in 2001, Insworld has a close working relationship with Pearson Edexcel, a fully accredited UK Exam Board and Awarding Body. Insworld Institute is a recognised Pearson Edexcel Centre of Excellence and is an Edexcel Approved Centre delivering Academic Qualifications. Pearson Edexcel GCE A-Level/IAL and IGCSE exams taken by Insworld students are recognised internationally by universities and employers as reliable assessments of academic achievement and potential.

Pearson Edexcel is regulated in the UK by Ofqual, the regulator of exam systems and standards in England and Wales. It must also comply with other regulators in the UK such as the Department for Education and Science and the Council for Curriculum, Examinations and Assessments.

Pearson IAL exams are modular. This means students can take exams in each module when they feel prepared to do well, and are able to re-take individual modules if necessary. It is possible to take Pearson Edexcel exams in January and May/June each year.

Our Facilities

Our school premises at the National Library Building and the North Bridge Centre have been designed to help us work in the most effective way with our students. We have 20 classrooms, including a Science Lab and an Art Room. These are ideal for Insworld’s small class sizes and help promote the student-centred learning which is central to the way we operate.

Personal Tutor System

At Insworld, each student has a Personal Tutor; a member of staff who will monitor all aspects of their studies to ensure that they are making good progress. This helps us to set personal targets for all our students – those who may need extra academic support as well as the high achievers who need to be stretched and challenged intellectually.

Our Programmes

Our approach to education is based on the best practice in the UK. In addition to focusing on academic achievement, we promote the social, moral and cultural development of our students, together with team working and leadership skills, critical and creative thinking and an independent mindset.

We offer a range of programmes:

English for Academic Study (EAS)

Edexcel International Tuition Programme (EITP)

Pearson Edexcel International GCSE (year 11)

Pearson Edexcel GCE A-Level/IAL (pre-university)

“Flexible” Enrollment Dates

We have four enrolment dates each year (January, April, July and September) so that students can begin programmes at the time of year which suits them best.

Partnership With Parents

We value the support and cooperation of parents, and want to keep them as well-informed as possible about how their child is progressing at the school. To do this we regularly communicate with parents via email or through the Parent Portal on the Insworld Management Information System. In addition to end of term reports, we send parents/guardians a weekly report for each student detailing their grades for the weekly formal assessments in each subject and a grade for their effort in class, together with information about their attendance.
