Class 12 = A2 Level (Final year of A Levels, Year 12, Age 17–18).

This stage is the second half of Cambridge Advanced, where students build on AS Level knowledge and complete their A Level qualification (which is accepted worldwide for university entry).

🎓 Cambridge Advanced — Class 12 (A2 Level, Year 12, Age 17–18)

👉 Students continue the same subjects they started in AS Level (Class 11).

👉 They usually sit for A2 exams at the end of Class 12, which combine with AS results = Full A Level Certificate.
