In secondary, the curriculum blends the SEP requirements with the Cambridge IGCSE for ages 14–16 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP). The International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC) is used as a transition between the PYP and IGCSE for 11–14 year olds, and the UNAM CCH pathway yields a UNAM certificate on completion.
