The General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) is an academically rigorous, internationally recognised qualification awarded in a specified subject, generally taken in a number of subjects by pupils in secondary education in England, Wales and Northern Ireland over two years (three years in certain schools).n secondary high schools, GCSE courses are taken in a variety of subjects. Typically, study of chosen subjects begins at the start of Year 10 (ages 14â15). Some subjects start earlier, for example Maths, English and Science, because these courses are too long to be taught within 2 years.
