Abstract
Since 2012, Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) has been working together with departments of the Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools (NIS) group to produce external assessments which test the knowledge and skills present in the curriculum introduced under the Integrated Programme of Development (IPD). This presentation will contextualise some of the processes and procedures that are required to produce external assessments as well as some of the bespoke arrangements that have been developed for the NIS context. In particular, how the necessity to produce and administer the same assessments for some subjects in multiple languages has led to the further development and adaptation of existing practices.
