Final Award winners will be announced at a Gala Ceremony in Barcelona on 22 November 2011.

IGCSE Global Perspectives is a relatively new subject offered by CIE, with a cross-curricular focus that aims to develop critical thinking about global issues. The flexibility of the topics allows learners to engage with new global events as they unfold, bringing an immediacy and relevancy to the lives of the young people studying the subject. This innovative approach enables them to study, discuss and form opinions about current world issues that they can observe happening around them and reported in the news.

The Heritage Private School is very proud to announce that the School’s Co-director and Director of Administration, Mrs Zoe Kouris, has just been named ‘2011 Cyprus Business Woman of the Year’.

American Academy of Larnaca and Heritage School of Limassol have received the prestigious International School Award at a ceremony in Carob Mill in Limassol on Friday 5 December, presented by British Council Director, Mr Richard Law.
