Cambridge English Qualifications Digital for young learners

Bringing digital adventure to young learner exams

It's a test which lets them show what they can do.

Maria, Teacher

Cambridge English Qualifications Digital for young learners take the new generation of young learners to digital fantasy worlds, to show their skills in English. Pre A1 Starters Digital and A1 Movers Digital give children their first taste of English in a way that amuses, motivates and rewards them throughout.

These digital tests have been developed based on decades of world-leading expertise in language testing for young learners. Aligned to the CEFR, they provide clear milestones, goals and next steps.

A rewarding adventure

Young learners each create their own avatar, which they customise with rewards after every task. This gives all candidates a sense of progress, encouraging a positive mindset towards learning and assessment.

Natural for the new generation

The digital tests focus on the same skills to the same CEFR levels as our paper-based tests. Some task types have been adapted for the digital format, while others are new to reflect today's digital world.

Empowering for young explorers

The user-friendly nature of the tests, and personal headphones with volume control, put young learners in control of their experience. This helps make them feel comfortable and equipped to complete tasks to the best of their ability.
