Academic fit
English-medium schools in Dhaka following Cambridge or Edexcel transfer very naturally into UK GCSE and A Level. National curriculum students are welcome too; we help present grades and references clearly.

What families in Bangladesh need to know
Cricket background
Age-group and academy cricket in Bangladesh has developed rapidly. Batters with sound technique against pace and spin-bowling all-rounders are in demand at UK schools.
Timing your application
Plan around 12–18 months ahead of a September start so footage, assessments and visa steps are never rushed.
Travel and access
Dhaka connects to Heathrow and Manchester via the Gulf and Istanbul, with onward domestic travel to schools across England and Wales.
Boys and girls, 11 to 18
Criced works with sons and daughters alike. Girls' cricket in UK independent schools has grown faster than any other sport, with dedicated coaching, fixtures and pathways into the professional women's game.

Will language be a barrier for my child?
Schools assess English at entry and most provide EAL support. Students from English-medium schools in Bangladesh generally settle quickly.
Can we visit schools before deciding?
Yes, and we encourage it where possible. Where travel is difficult, we arrange virtual tours and calls with housemasters and coaches.
Is the site available in Bengali?
Yes. Criced can be read in Bengali as well as English, Hindi, Urdu, Sinhala and Tamil.
