项目介绍


UFP是什么?

英国UFP和A-Level课程一样,同属在本科前的Level3学历课程。UFP不但在学术方面给予学生提升并进入大学,更值得肯定的是UFP在学生进入大学前会以英国本土的教育理念以弥补国际学生在原所在国和英国在教育体制上的差异,帮助学生更好地适应英国的高等教育学习。学生在熟悉英国教学模式、学习方法以及英语能力的同时,积累一定的专业知识。课程考试成绩满足要求后,可以直升英国本科。


CATS UFP – 开设UFP课程的全英鼻祖!

CGS教育集团旗下国际中学-沃斯盖特学校早在1985年就推出了UFP课程,开创性地为来自全球的学生从世界各地升读至英国本科架起桥梁,帮助学生将本国所受的高中教育与英国大学教育衔接起来,填补现有学历和英国大学入学要求之间的差距,是通往英国三年本科课程的一条捷径。随着CGS教育集团的不断深耕,其UFP课程得以在集团中学内不断发展,并形成独具特色的CATS UFP。作为全英UFP课程的开创者,它受到了全英几乎所有高校的广泛认可。
