Cambridge English: Young Learners
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c5/Young_Learners_Scale.png/220px-Young_Learners_Scale.png)
Cambridge English: Young Learners, also known as Young Learners English Tests (YLE), is a suite of English language tests specially designed for children in primary and lower-secondary school. The tests are provided by Cambridge English Language Assessment (previously known as University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations).
The suite includes three qualifications,[1] each targeted at a different level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Cambridge English: Starters (YLE Starters) is targeted at pre-A1 Level, Cambridge English: Movers (YLE Movers) at CEFR Level A1, and Cambridge English: Flyers (YLE Flyers) at CEFR Level A2.
Cambridge English: Young Learners leads on to Cambridge English examinations designed for school-aged learners, including Cambridge English: Key (KET) for Schools at CEFR Level A2, Cambridge English: Preliminary (PET) for Schools at CEFR Level B1, Cambridge English: First (FCE) for Schools at CEFR Level B2 and Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE) at CEFR Level C1. Cambridge English: Flyers is roughly equivalent to Cambridge English: Key for Schools in terms of difficulty, but the words and contexts covered in Cambridge English: Flyers are suitable for younger children.[2]
History[]
Cambridge English: Young Learners was first introduced in 1997, following extensive test development and piloting during the mid-1990s. There was immediate interest in the tests, and by 2001 worldwide candidature had reached nearly 200,000, with large numbers of candidates in countries such as China, Spain, Argentina and Italy.
The increase in teaching of English to young learners (aged approximately 7 to 12 years old) had led to growing demand for assessment. The key question for Cambridge English Language Assessment was whether it was possible to create an international English language test for children which was accurate, fair and had a positive impact on future language learning.
Development work began in 1993. The planning phase involved extensive research and consultation, since relatively little research had been carried out into the assessment of second language learning in children. Research focused on three related fields: children's socio-psychological and cognitive development; second language teaching and learning; and second language assessment. This helped inform the choice and treatment of test topics and tasks. For example, tasks involving scanning were rejected since children only demonstrate search and stop strategies from around age 11. The research also recognised that children are motivated by and perform best on tasks directly related to their own experiences of teaching and learning; a wide range of course books and teaching materials were reviewed to identify the main content areas (topics, vocabulary, etc.)
Draft specifications and sample materials were developed, covering all four skills – speaking, listening, reading and writing – with greater focus on oral skills because of the emphasis on spoken language over written language among young children. Tasks were designed to be brief and ‘active’ or game-like, e.g. colouring activities, and aimed to test use of language in relevant contexts in a bid to close the gap between children's experiences of learning and testing.
The tests were trialled in 1995–96 with over 3,000 children in Europe, South America and South East Asia. The trial feedback was used to construct the live tests.[3] The trials also identified issues of practicality. For example, schools need to enter children when the children are ready, which could be at any time in the year. Instead of a fixed exam timetable, a flexible system was adopted so that tests could be taken in familiar surroundings in a child's school and administered to fit in with regional/local conditions (e.g. schools term periods).
In 2003, 10 years after the initial development work, the tests were reviewed again. This involved further consultation with test centres, teachers and examiners. The consultation indicated high levels of satisfaction with the tests in general, but identified several tasks where changes might be made to improve the tests. These new tasks were trialled in centres across the world (Argentina, China, Japan, Libya, Portugal, Spain, Thailand and UK). A total of 4,000 trial tests were taken. Following analysis of the results, the Young Learners tests were revised and went live in January 2007. Teacher feedback indicated: “an appreciation of the clearer test focus for each task and the new words in the vocabulary lists. In addition the new task types have led to clearer guidelines for markers and this enhances marker standardisation”.[4]
Twenty years on from the initial development work, the tests have been updated again. From January 2014, the paper-based tests feature new graphics designed to motivate and engage young learners. In addition, computer-based tests are being launched on a country-by-country basis.[5]
Format[]
All three tests in the suite are designed to test the four core language skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening).
Each of the tests has three papers: a Listening paper, a Reading and Writing paper, and a Speaking paper. Each paper is worth a third of the total marks.
Results are reported using shields as an indication of how well the candidate has done in each skill. A maximum of five shields are available per paper and a maximum of 15 shields are available in total.
The tests are available in pen-and-paper format. From January 2014 there are updated paper-based tests with new graphics designed to motivate young learners.
Cambridge English Language Assessment has also launched computer-based tests in some countries. This provides learners with a wider availability of test dates and faster results. Both formats of the exams have the same task types, topics, number of questions, timings and marks. And both formats lead to the same certificate. Where the computer-based test differs is the speaking paper – in the computer-based Speaking test, children respond to audio and visual prompts, rather than to an examiner. Children answer a few warm up questions to get them used to interacting with an animated character.[6]
Cambridge English Language: Starters[]
Paper 1. Listening (20 minutes)
The Listening paper has four parts and 20 questions in total. Each part begins with one or two examples. The children will hear each recording twice.
Part 1 has a big picture and pictures of seven small objects. Children listen to five short conversations between a man and a woman. Children listen to the information in the conversations and draw a line from each of the objects to the place where it should be on the big picture. Part 1 tests listening to words and prepositions.
Part 2 has a set of questions and a short conversation between a child and an adult. Children listen to the information in the conversation to answer each of the questions. The answer will be a name or a number. Part 2 tests listening for numbers and spelling.
Part 3 has five short conversations between different pairs of people. There are a question and three pictures for each conversation. Children listen to each conversation and choose the right picture (A, B, or C). Part 3 tests listening for specific information.
Part 4 has a big picture with seven examples of the same object (e.g. seven balls, seven books). Children listen to a conversation between an adult and a child and color in each object using the color mentioned in the conversation. Part 4 tests listening for words, colors, and prepositions.
Paper 2. Reading and Writing (20 minutes)
The Reading and Writing paper has five parts and 25 questions in total. Each part begins with one or two examples. Children must spell their answers correctly in all parts of the test.
Part 1 has five pictures of objects. There is a sentence underneath each picture, e.g. ‘This is a ball.’ If the sentence is true, children should put a tick next to the picture. If the sentence is false, children should put a cross next to the picture. Part 1 tests reading short sentences and recognizing words.
Part 2 has a big picture and some sentences about the picture. If the sentence is true, children should write ‘yes’. If the sentence is false, children should write ‘no’. Part 2 tests reading short sentences and writing one-word answers.
Part 3 has five pictures of objects. Children have to find the right word for the object. After each picture, there are some dashes (- - - -) that show how many letters are in the word. There are also some jumbled letters (e.g. B O KO). Children have to put the jumbled letters in the right order to make the word (e.g. BOOK). Part 3 tests spelling simple words.
Part 4 has a text with some missing words (gaps). Below the text, there is a box with some pictures and some words. Children have to choose the right word from the box and copy it into the right gap. Part 4 tests reading a text and writing missing words (nouns).
Part 5 has three pictures, which tell a story. Each picture has one or two questions. Children answer each question based on what they can see in the pictures. They only have to write one word for each answer. Part 5 tests reading questions and writing one-word answers.
Paper 3. Speaking (3 to 5 minutes)
The Speaking test has five parts. In the computer-based test, the learner responds to audio and visual prompts and will answer a few warm-up questions to get them used to interact with an animated character. In the paper-based test, the learner takes the test with an examiner. (Someone they know will introduce them to the examiner and explain what is going to happen in their language.)
In Part 1 the examiner greets the child, asks them their name, and asks them to point to things in a big picture. Part 1 tests understanding and following spoken instructions.
In Part 2 the examiner shows the child small pictures of some objects. The examiner names three objects and asks the child to point to them. The examiner then asks the child to put each object card somewhere on the big picture used in Part 1 (e.g. ‘Put the ball under the tree’). Part 2 tests understanding and following spoken instructions.
In Part 3 the examiner asks the child some questions about the big picture used in Part 1 (e.g. ‘What is this?’ ‘What color is the …?’). Part 3 tests understanding and answering spoken questions.
In Part 4 the examiner asks the child some questions about the small pictures of objects used in Part 2 (e.g. ‘What is this?’). Part 4 tests understanding and answering spoken questions.
In Part 5 the examiner asks the child some questions about themselves (e.g. their age, family, friends). Part 5 tests understanding and responding to personal questions.[7]
Cambridge English: Movers[]
Paper 1. Listening (25 minutes)
The Listening paper has five parts and 25 questions in total. Each part begins with one or two examples. The children will hear each recording twice.
Part 1 has a big picture. The picture shows people doing different things. Above and below the picture are some names. Children listen carefully to a conversation between an adult and a child. They draw a line from each name to the correct person in the big picture. Part 1 tests listening for names and descriptions.
Part 2 has a short conversation between two people. There is a form or notebook page with some missing words (gaps). Children listen to the information in the recording and fill in each gap. The answer might be a word or a number. Part 2 tests listening for names, spellings and other information.
Part 3 has a conversation between an adult and a child. In the conversation the child talks about what they did on different days of the week. Children listen to the information in the recording and draw a line from the day of the week to the picture which shows what the child did on that day. Part 3 tests listening for specific information (past tense).
Part 4 has five short conversations. There is a question and three pictures for each conversation. Children listen to each conversation and choose the right picture (A, B or C). Part 3 tests listening for specific information.
Part 5 has a big picture which shows different objects. Children listen to a conversation between an adult and a child. The adult asks the child to colour in different objects in the picture and to write a simple word or draw an object. Children have to follow the instructions given in the recording. Part 5 tests listening for words, colours and specific information.
Paper 2. Reading and Writing (30 minutes)
The Reading and Writing paper has six sections and 40 questions in total. Each part begins with one or two examples. Children must spell their answers correctly in all parts of the test.
Part 1 has eight pictures of things, with the English word under them. On the right-hand side there are six definitions. Children choose which picture matches each definition and copy the correct word underneath the definition. Part 1 tests reading short sentences, matching to words and copying words.
Part 2 has a big picture and six sentences about the picture. If the sentence is true, children should write ‘yes’. If the sentence is false, children should write ‘no’. Part 2 tests reading sentences and writing one-word answers.
Part 3 has a short conversation between two people. Everything the first speaker says is printed on the question paper, with gaps for the second speaker's answers. Children decide what the second speaker says, choosing from three options (A, B or C). Part 3 tests reading a conversation and choosing correct responses.
Part 4 has a text with some missing words (gaps). Next to the text are some small pictures and words. Children decide which word goes in each gap and copy the word in the gap. In the last question, children choose the best title for the text from a choice of three possible titles. Part 4 tests reading for specific information and gist and copying words.
Part 5 has three pictures which tell a story. After each picture/part of the story, children complete sentences about the story using one, two or three words. Part 5 tests reading a story and completing sentences.
Part 6 has a text with some missing words (gaps). For each gap there is a choice of three possible answers. Children decide which answer is correct and copy the word into the gap. Part 6 tests reading and understanding a factual text, simple grammar and copying words.
Paper 3. Speaking (5 to 7 minutes)
The Speaking test has four parts. In the computer-based test the learner responds to audio and visual prompts, and will answer a few warm up questions to get them used to interacting with an animated character. In the paper-based test the learner takes the test with an examiner. (Someone they know will introduce them to the examiner and explain what is going to happen in their own language.)
In Part 1 the examiner greets the child and asks them their name. Then they look at two pictures, which are similar but have some differences. The examiner asks the child to describe four differences in the pictures. Part 1 tests describing differences, talking about colour, size, number, position, how people or things look, what people are doing, etc.
In Part 2 the examiner shows four pictures which tell a story, and tells the child about the first picture. The child has to continue the story and describe the other three pictures. Part 2 tests understanding the beginning of a story, continuing a story and describing pictures.
In Part 3 the examiner shows the child four sets of four pictures. In each set one picture is different from the other three. The child has to say which picture is different and explain why. Part 3 tests explaining reasons.
In Part 4 the examiner asks the child some questions about themselves (e.g. school, weekends, friends, hobbies). Part 4 tests understanding and responding to personal questions.[8]

Scoring[]
![Sample Cambridge English: Young Learners certificates](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a2/Cambridge_English_Young_Learners_Certificates.jpg/300px-Cambridge_English_Young_Learners_Certificates.jpg)
All candidates receive a certificate. There is no pass or fail.
Results are reported using shields as an indication of how well the candidate has done in each paper (Reading and Writing paper, Listening paper, and Speaking paper). The certificate shows how many shields the candidate has received for each paper, with a maximum of five shields available for each paper and 15 shields available in total. A result of one shield (out of five) for a test paper means a child can improve a lot in that skill. A result of five shields (out of five) for a test paper means a child did very well in that skill and answered most questions correctly.
Children who achieve a total of 10 or 11 shields or above are ready to start preparing for the next exam level.[10]
Timing and results[]
Candidates take all their test papers within a period of five days, with the Listening paper always taken before the Reading and Writing paper.
Different test centres offer different dates to take the test. Candidates contact their local centre to find out their test dates.[11]
All candidates receive a certificate. Candidates receive their certificate three to four weeks after the test or earlier.[12]
Usage[]
Cambridge English: Young Learners tests are used to celebrate children's achievement, build their confidence and show parents the progress they are making.[13] Millions of children have taken the tests and the tests are recognized as one of the most authoritative international testing systems for young learners of the English language.[14]
The skills covered in the tests aim to support children to access English-language books, songs, television, films, internet and other media, use English as a common international language, and get ready for future study.[15]
The tests can be used to prepare and motivate children for future English-language learning.[16] Children who have taken Cambridge English: Flyers can begin to aim for tests such as Cambridge English: Key (KET) for Schools, Cambridge English: Preliminary (PET) for Schools, Cambridge English: First (FCE) for Schools and Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE), which lead to internationally recognised certificates, accepted for study and work.
Cambridge English: Young Learners demonstrates language proficiency at various levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Cambridge English: Starters is focused on pre-A1, Cambridge English: Movers is focused on Level A1 and Cambridge English: Flyers is focused on Level A2.

![Free preparation materials](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/3f/Cambridge_English_Young_Learners_sample_papers.jpg/200px-Cambridge_English_Young_Learners_sample_papers.jpg)
A comprehensive list of test centres can be found on the Cambridge English Language Assessment website. Free test preparation materials, such as sample tests, are available from the official website.
Free learning materials, including games and apps, are also available from the official website along with information about the Cambridge English Penfriends initiative, which links schools around the world so that children can practise English with ‘penfriends’.[20]
Cambridge English Placement Test for Young Learners[]
The placement test helps teachers to understand a learner's English language level and ensure that they are working at the correct level. Teachers can use the results to decide which language class and exam is most appropriate, and choose suitable teaching and learning materials.[21]
![Cambridge English Placement Test: the first step on the learning journey](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/ac/Cambridge_English_Young_Learners_Journey.jpg)
The placement test uses the same task types as Cambridge English: Young Learners and covers listening, reading and writing skills. The placement test is computer adaptive. It becomes progressively easier or more difficult based on the student's responses, assessing the entire spectrum of language ability from CEFR Level pre-A1 to Level A2. The test is accessed online and can be taken anytime. Most learners take between 30 and 40 minutes to complete the test, and the results are available instantly.
