Cambridge Global Perspectives® is a unique, transformational program that helps students develop outstanding transferable skills, including critical thinking, research and collaboration. This innovative and stimulating skills-based program places academic study in a practical, real-world context. It gives students the opportunity to develop transferable skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, research, communication and collaboration that they need to be successful at school and university as well as in their future careers.
The program develops the skills of research, analysis, evaluation, reflection, collaboration and communication. Cambridge Global Perspectives taps into the way today’s students enjoy learning, including group work, seminars, projects and working with other students around the world. The emphasis is on developing students’ ability to think critically about a range of global issues where there is always more than one point of view. Students study global topics that are relevant to them – for example, the environment, education and keeping healthy.
