| New Delhi,November 21, 2007 : Senior Representatives from University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) today made a presentation to teachers at the Excelsior American School, Gurgaon. The forum provided teachers with a unique opportunity to speak freely with CIE representatives. |

| Addressing the gathering William Bickerdike, Regional Manager, South Asia said: "Cambridge is one of the most distinguished qualifications for school children. As an education provider to students of over 150 countries we are sensitive to the needs of each one of our students. In our endeavour to keep pace with changing times and make available most up to date information for learners, we undertake annual revision of our syllabus. This makes the Cambridge curriculum amongst the best and most desired by international schools. A steady growth in our entries across the world is a testimony to the fact that we are infact the world's most preferred international qualification." |
|
| William also added "CIE is in the process of developing India studies curriculum in consultation with teachers in India, it will be available for first teaching in 2011." |
|
| CIE qualifications differentiate themselves in more ways than one. Not only do they impart knowledge and augment learning skills; CIE qualifications encourage learners to develop critical thinking and effective problem solving skills. |
|
| Speaking to the teachers Shalini Nambiar, Director, Excelsior American School said "It gives me immense pleasure to host University of Cambridge International Examinations. With shrinking world boundaries, international education has seen a spurt in the number of takers. I am hopeful that international education boards such as CIE shall be able to propel students towards learning and success. |
