The Cambridge IGCSE Sanskrit syllabus inspires learners to develop their knowledge and understanding of Sanskrit language and literature. Learners focus on skills of translation as well as appreciating literature which forms some of the foundations of Eastern traditions.
Study of the literature is enriched through the Epic Civilisation element of the IGCSE which places the texts in their philosophical, cultural, social and historical contexts.
Syllabuses
The syllabus year refers to the year in which the examination will be taken.
Grade descriptions
For some subjects, the syllabus states that Grade Descriptions will be made available after first assessment in 2020 or 2021.
Publication of grade descriptions for these syllabuses has been delayed. This is to make sure that grade descriptions reflect examination outcomes appropriately and are based on the full range of candidate performance after the 2020 and 2021 series.
