In today’s globalised world, English proficiency is more important than ever. Whether you're looking to advance your career, travel, or study abroad, having a strong command of the English language can open up numerous opportunities. At Orchard Academy, we recognise the significance of English proficiency and offer tailored support to help you achieve your goals. Our English test, aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), is a key part of this support.
What is CEFR?
The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is an internationally recognised standard for describing language ability. It provides a clear and comprehensive way to measure and interpret language skills, making it easier to compare levels of proficiency across different languages and educational systems.
The CEFR is divided into six levels:
A1 (Beginner): Can understand and use familiar everyday expressions and basic phrases.
A2 (Elementary): Can communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a direct exchange of information.
B1 (Intermediate): Can deal with most situations likely to arise while traveling in an area where the language is spoken.
B2 (Upper Intermediate): Can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible.
C1 (Advanced): Can use the language flexibly and effectively for social, academic, and professional purposes.
C2 (Proficient): Can express themselves spontaneously, very fluently, and precisely, differentiating finer shades of meaning even in more complex situations.
