Pearson English International Certificate – Young Learners
The Pearson English International Certificate – Young Learners provides fun English language assessment for students aged six to 13, delivered by Edexcel, the UK's largest examining body. There are four different levels of the International Certificate – Young Learners, to suit students from pre-A1 to A2 level on the Common European Framework of Reference. The tests assess a young learner's ability to use English language communicatively, with an emphasis on real-life scenarios rather than on knowledge of specific language items and vocabulary.
Big English prepares learners for the requirements found in the exam – First Words, Springboard, Quickmarch and Breakthrough.
