Preliminary English Test (PET) - European Framework level B1:

This examination is suited to assess a pupil's level of English in different social aspects as well as to demonstrate their ability through oral and written texts referring to everyday situations. The PET examination is taken by pupils in Primary 6 and is a useful external measurement of a pupil's level.

 

First Certificate in English (FCE) - European Framework level B2: 

The FCE is an intermediate level examination which assesses a pupil's ability to interact spontaneously and with fluency in different contexts. Our pupils study towards this examination in specific classes in the first two years of their Secondary education.

 

Certificate in Advanced English (CAE) - European Framework level C1:  

The CAE is an advanced level examination which assesses a pupil's ability to communicate in English in various contexts – social, professional and educational. Our pupils study towards this examination in specific classes in the final two years of Secondary. This certificate, or the CPE, is normally an entrance requirement for universities where classes are taught in English.

 

Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE) - European Framework level C2:

 

The CPE examination is the most advanced of the Cambridge suite of examinations and assesses a pupil's ability to communicate in diverse contexts. Most of our pupils work towards the CPE examination in specific classes during Bachillerato, the final two years of schooling. This certificate, or the CAE, is normally an entrance requirement for universities where classes are taught in English.
