Tengku Muhammad Faiz Petra
Tengku Muhammad Fa-iz Petra ibni Almarhum Sultan Ismail Petra ( Jawi: ; born 20 January 1974) is the current Tengku Mahkota (Crown Prince) of the Malaysian state of Kelantan, heir presumptive and first in line of succession to the throne of Kelantan. He was proclaimed as the Crown Prince of Kelantan on 18 October 2010 upon the accession of his elder brother, Sultan Muhammad V as the 29th Sultan of Kelantan.Although he is sometimes called heir apparent due to him being appointed Tengku Mahkota, this is not technically true since he may still be displaced in the line of succession by a son born to the current Sultan, however implausible that may seem. He is the second of four children of the late Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Ismail Petra and Raja Perempuan Tengku Anis. His two younger siblings are Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Petra and Tengku Amalin A’ishah Putri. His eldest brother is the Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Muhammad V, the fifteenth Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia. Biogra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

GCE Advanced Level (United Kingdom)
The General Certificate of Education (GCE) Advanced Level, or A Level, is a main school leaving qualification in England, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. It is available as an alternative qualification in other countries. Students generally study for A levels over a two-year period. For much of their history, A levels have been examined by "terminal" examinations taken at the end of these two years. A more modular approach to examination became common in many subjects starting in the late 1980s, and standard for September 2000 and later cohorts, with students taking their subjects to the half-credit "AS" level after one year and proceeding to full A level the next year (sometimes in fewer subjects). In 2015, Ofqual decided to change back to a terminal approach where students sit all examinations at the end of the second year. AS is still offered, but as a separate qualification; AS grades no longer count towards a subsequent A level. Most stu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
