AWE is proud to be an Authorized Cambridge Exam Preparation Center. Once each year, we welcome Cambridge examiners into our classrooms, so that AWE students can take their exams in a comfortable and familiar environment.

Cambridge Young Learners English Exams:  3 levels

 Pre A1 Starters, A1 Movers, and A2 Flyers

Designed  for children ages 7 - 12. They are run by  Cambridge Assessment English – a part of the University of Cambridge. We contact our students with the relevant exam information.

​

AWE also prepare older students to take the next level of Cambridge Exams: A2 KET (Key for Schools), B1 PET (Preliminary for Schools), and B2 FCE (First for Schools).  These are for children 12 and older.  AWE students must take  these at a local Cambridge Exam center location.

​

Before taking the exams, your child’s teacher will help them become familiar with the exam format. You can also help your child prepare for the exam by reviewing the work from class and ensuring all homework is completed.

You can access sample papers, Apps and games on the Cambridge Assessment English website at cambridgeenglish.org.  For  information about exams in the Basel area, please visit cambridgeenglish-basel.ch. We advise you to look at both sites. They contain a lot of useful information for parents and students and should help you familiarize yourself with the exams.

Learning a language is an exciting journey!
