Top 20 IGCSE Schools in Vancouver

Vancouver has a strong independent school market and many international pathways. Some schools offer Cambridge-linked programmes or IGCSE-style preparation. Families typically rank schools based on academic outcomes signals, subject breadth, and the consistency of exam technique teaching (mocks, past papers, feedback cycles).

What to ask for (IGCSE outcomes + evidence)

• Whether Cambridge IGCSE/International GCSE is offered (and in which subjects)
• Cohort size and exam entries (if applicable)
• Mock exam calendar and past-paper routines
