Accurate
Scores are based on the Global Scale of English (GSE) as well as the CEFR, meaning progress can be measured in small increments within each level.
Efficient
Relieve the burden of time and resources spent creating, administering and marking tests - while minimising human error and receiving reliable results.
Use with any course
This test is course-agnostic, meaning it measures real language skills and progress to enhance any teaching programme.
AI-backed
Backed by market-leading AI technology and developed by the team who created PTE Academic, trusted by governments and universities worldwide.
Rich insights and direction
The test assesses all four language skills, returning at-a-glance data for individuals and your class as a whole - as well as more detailed descriptions of ability in each skill.
The results also include tailored guidance for students and teachers, with direction to the specific courseware and activities that can help.
Fast, efficient and easy to use
Fitting neatly into a 45-minute lesson, this test has been designed to give useful information about student progress in a way that enhances, rather than disrupts, the learning process.
With an appropriate computer, headset and Internet connection, the test can even be taken at home – and results are returned within minutes.
Detailed and reliable
Backed by Pearson’s leading artificial intelligence scoring technology, Benchmark Test offers a choice of levels to support all students: A, B1, B2 or C.
Questions focus on abilities relevant to that level to provide detailed, reliable results.

Score report
**Add in text here about the score report. The more text/space that is put here, the more of the score report screenshot will be shown to the right. NB: Because the download link shows a full score report, it's not necessary to put in a full-length screenshot on this page and would argue against it because of the visual noise it create. Let users opt in to seeing a full score report so that they're not distracted from other elements of the page.**
A joined-up approach to assessment
The Benchmark Test works alongside the Level Test to first stream students, and then track their progress in detail.
Both tests are administered via Test Hub, delivering rich insights into your learners' needs and the effectiveness of your teaching programme, plus tailored recommendations for improvement.
Aligned to the Global Scale of English (GSE)
The GSE is the first truly global English standard, allowing teachers to more accurately and more easily measure learner progress.
