Cambridge English exams for children

The exams are designed and developed to motivate children from a young age right through their teenage years and beyond. They cover all four language skills – reading, writing, listening and speaking. They bring learning to life, covering topics that your child is familiar with and developing the skills needed to:

• Improve in English
• Understand books, television, films, songs, the internet and other media in English
• Make friends around the world
• Travel the world
• Study at university or college, either at home or in another country
• Get a job and use English at work, either in your country or abroad.

Taking and passing exams at the right level – from beginner to advanced – helps build your child’s confidence. Your child will become more proficient and more fluent with each step.
