GCSE’s or other equivalent qualifications.
As with GCSE’s there a wide variety
of subjects can be studied and these
qualifications and usually take two
years to complete. A levels are regarded
as one of the main routes in to further
education and employment.
AS levels are stand alone qualifications
which have a value of half a full A
level qualification. The qualification
is made up of three units. Upon completion
of these units, candidates receive their
AS level. If they wish they can undertake

AS level covers the less demanding aspects
of the A level, the A2 covers the more
demanding aspects.
