Taking Exams the Modern Way: Pearson Remote Invigilation
One of the most exciting innovations in global education today is Pearson’s Remote Invigilation Service, which enables students to sit their official Edexcel exams online, under secure supervision, from the comfort of their own home.
Sophia High School students benefit from this technology twice a year:
- IGCSE examinations in May/June and November.
- International A Level (IAL) examinations in January and May/June.
This flexibility supports families living overseas, professional athletes, and globally mobile learners who need an accredited examination pathway without the constraints of a physical school or test centre.
Modular Learning for IAL Students
Sophia High School delivers the Pearson Edexcel International A Level as a modular qualification, giving students greater choice in pacing and progression. Each unit can be taken when the student is ready, making it easier to balance studies, wellbeing, and extracurricular commitments.
This modular structure also allows learners to track progress through consistent assessment points—ideal for high performance athletes needing flexibility around competition schedules and those preparing for university applications in the U.K. or abroad.
