第一，英国爱德思国家考试局是英国本土最大的考试局，同时也是英国最大的颁发学术考试证书的机构。此外，爱德思国家考试局还是培生教育集团的官方合作伙伴，业务涉及到学历认证、学术英语认证、中小学生国际证书认证等多个方面。可以说，爱德思考试局是目前全球教育领域和颁证授权方面最强大的考试局。目前，在河南已经设立的考试中心有两所学校，分别是郑州外国语学校和中原工学院，建业外国语中学是考试局经过严格资格审核后在郑州设立的第三个中心，这也是对建业外国语中学品牌影响力和教学水平的高度肯定。当然，建业外国语中学考试中心的设立，也再次扩大了郑州市以及河南省爱德思考试局的影响，对双方之后的深度合作打下了良好的基础；
Firstly, Edexcel is the largest examinations authority in the United Kingdom and the largest body that issues academic examinations. In addition, Edexcel is the official partner of Pearson Education Group. Its business involves academic qualification certification,academic English certification, international certificate certification for primary and secondary school students and other aspects.

教学督导李超先生，详细解读了A-Level国际课程及其考试方式。
Mr.Lichao made a speech of A-Level explanation
解读A-Level国际课程。A-Level explanation ---
第一，A-Level课程是英国以及英联邦国家高中生所学习的课程，内容包含76门功课，他被世界上的160多个国家的11000多所大学都认可，并作为大学录取标准。国外大学在录取学生的时候，只要求其中的三门功课。也就是说，国内学生想要进入国外就读好的大学，只要完成A-Level三科课程，通过参加考试，并且达到大学的要求，即可被国外大学录取；
Firstly, A-level is a course for high school students in the UK and the commonwealth countries. It contains 76 subjects and is accepted by more than 11,000 universities in more than 160 countries around the world as standard for university admission. Foreign universities require only three of them when they admit students. It means if Chinese students want to entry good university abroad, they can be admitted to a foreign university as long as they have completed the A-Level courses.
第二，A-Level课程的考试模式和国内高考以及其他的一些国际课程考试也有所不同。A-Level考试每年设有三次考试，分别是在1月份，6月份和10月份，且三次考试效力是相同的。相比于我们国内的“一考定胜负”的高考，参加A-Level考试的考生可以根据自己的学习进度和实际情况，任意选择考试时间和考试科目。同时，A-Level考试的评分标准采取“高分代替低分”原则，考生可以任意选择多次参加考试，并且使用最好的成绩来代替较低的成绩；此外，A-Level的考试评分为“等级制”，成绩分层包括A*，A，B，C等，这样就避免了国内考试“分数值”的一些弊端，可以说，对于学习成绩中上游的学生，是非常适合的课程，并且完全可以取得最高的成绩；
Secondly, the examination model is different from the national college entrance examination and other international exams. A-level exams are given three times a year - in January, June and October - and are of the same effect. Candidates can choose the exam time and subjects on the basis of own situation. Addtionally, the grading standard of A-Level adopts the principle of "high score instead of low score". The examinee can choose to take the exam several times and use the best score instead of the lower score. In addition, A-Level is graded as "hierarchy", and grades include A*, A, B, C, etc. In this way, some disadvantages of "score value" in domestic exams are avoided. It can help students to get the highest grades.
第三，A-Level国际课程开设以及考试的科目包含：数学，进阶数学，物理，化学，会计，中文等六门，学生可以根据自己的能力和将来申请的专业进行三门的选择和学习。而每门课程的难度，都基本是国内初中以及高一的知识难度，而且每门课都有大量的考试真题可以让学生进行练习和测试。所以，无论是文科生，还是理科生，都可以选择适合自己的科目来学习，并且通过大量的真题训练，从而在考试中取得满意的成绩；
Thirdly,depend on Chinese student characteristics, there are six subjects: Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Accounting and Chinese. Students can choose and study three subjects. The difficulty of each course is basically the knowledge difficulty of junior middle schools and senior high schools in China, and each course has a large number of old exam questions for students to practice and test. Therefore, no matter the liberal arts student or the science student, they can choose the suitable subjects to learn, and through a lot of training of real questions, so as to achieve satisfactory results in the exam;

最后，建业外国语中学校长朱永仁代表学校发言，他首先对爱德思国家考试局表示感谢，感谢其对建业外国语中学的信任和肯定。
Finally, Mr. Zhu Yongren, the principal of Jianye International School, made a speech on behalf of the school. He first expressed his gratitude to Edexcel Bureau for its trust and affirmation to Jianye International School.
他说：“建业外国语中学一直以来把办国际一流百年名校作为自己的努力方向。学校的办学特色就是个性化、多元化、国际化。学校认为每个学生都是独立的个体，每个学生都有自己的特长，找到他们感兴趣的课程、找准他们的发展方向、对同学们进行多元评价，而不是只用文化课成绩评判学生优劣好坏，这是建业外国语中学想做的让生命更美好的教育。然而，郑州毕竟是内地城市，有不少家长对孩子教育的格局还需扩容，学校是教育的引领者，所以引领家长的教育思维、支持学生的健康成长，是学校要一直坚持做下去的事情。今天的授权A-Level考试中心授权，只是一个节点，学校希望由此带出一个生态系统，由高中A-Level考试向下蔓延，与初中和小学IB国际课程衔接，上下同欲，内外同心，使这个国际化教育的生态系统越来越丰满！”
‘Jianye International School has always made it its goal to become one of the world's top hundred-year schools,’he said, ‘The characteristics of the school are individuation,diversification and internationalization. Every student is an individual, they have their own special skills, and they can find out the development direction of, the multivariate evaluation to the classmates, not only academic achievement to judge students quality stand or fall, this is just want to do international school, let life a better education. However, Zhengzhou is a inland city after all, and many parents still need to expand the pattern of children's education. Our school is the leader of education, so leading parents' educational thinking and supporting the healthy growth of students is what the school should always do. Today's authorization of A-Level centre is just a node, from which the school hopes to bring out an ecosystem, which will spread downward from high school A-level and connect with junior and primary IB courses, with the same aspiration from top to bottom and the same unity from the outside to the inside, so as to enrich the ecosystem of international education!"
