Pearson Edexcel International Lower Secondary Science (iLowerSecondary) is a Year 7 to Year 9 framework, internationalised from the English National Curriculum, that bridges primary science to International GCSE. It covers Biology, Chemistry and Physics alongside Scientific Enquiry skills, with Year 8 extending the concepts and practical reasoning introduced in Year 7. Progress is monitored through school-administered Progress Tests across the year, with the externally examined iLowerSecondary Science Achievement Test sat at the end of Year 9.
