At Muscat International School by Amity, our philosophy Be Future-Ready reflects our commitment to helping students aim high and achieve their full potential. Through strong academic pathways and personalised support, we prepare students to succeed academically while growing into confident, capable individuals.
Our Key Stage 3 programme provides students with a broad, balanced and academically rigorous foundation. The curriculum is designed to give pupils a holistic understanding of subject areas that can later be selected at iGCSE, A Level or within the Omani General Education Diploma pathway.
All Key Stage 3 subjects, curricula and assessments are aligned with Cambridge International specifications, ensuring continuity, academic depth and strong preparation for Key Stage 4.
Students entering Year 9 may begin the Cambridge iGCSE programme, following the internationally recognised Cambridge International Education curriculum. Subject choices span core academic disciplines, languages, sciences, humanities, technology and creative subjects, enabling students to develop strong subject knowledge alongside critical thinking and independent learning skills.
This pathway provides an excellent academic foundation for students progressing to Cambridge A Levels and is widely recognised by universities across the UK, Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East.
The Sixth Form transition is an exciting one, as it is an opportunity for our students to not only progress on a personal level academically but to develop their interpersonal skills by becoming the leaders of our student community.
Our A Level programme follows the Cambridge International linear curriculum, with examinations taken at the end of Year 12. Students typically study three A Level subjects, with the option to take a fourth subject based on academic suitability.
A Level subject offerings include a broad range of sciences, mathematics, humanities, business-related subjects, technology and the arts. This pathway is designed to prepare students for competitive university entry, supporting subject depth, academic independence and advanced analytical skills.
From Year 9, students may choose the Omani General Education Diploma (GED) as an alternative academic pathway. In Years 9 and 10, students study a combination of core subjects including English, Arabic, Mathematics, Sciences, Islamic Studies and Social Sciences, alongside elective options. Assessment during these years is internally conducted.
In Years 11 and 12, students follow the Ministry of Education curriculum, studying compulsory subjects alongside optional choices. External Ministry-issued assessments take place in Year 12. Successful completion of the GED can provide access to local universities and government-funded higher education opportunities within Oman.
The International Project Qualification (IPQ) is offered as an additional subject alongside A Levels. It is an internationally recognised qualification valued by universities and is equivalent to an AS Level.
Students complete an independent 5,000-word research-based project, developing skills in academic research, critical analysis, report writing and presentation. The IPQ prepares students for the academic demands of university study and strengthens higher-education applications.
Sixth Form places strong emphasis on independence, responsibility, and informed decision-making. Structured mentoring and academic support prepare students for university life, applications, and the transition beyond school.
Our alumni have progressed to universities in the UK, Europe, Canada, Australia, and the Middle East, reflecting strong academic foundations and well-informed pathway choices. Sixth Form students receive dedicated university guidance, including pathway counselling, institution shortlisting, application planning, personal statement support, reference coordination, and advice on country-specific admissions processes. The school works closely with families to ensure students approach university applications with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
