We also have videos that you can use to explain to students what it’s like on exam day, so they know what to expect.

Finally, we have advice for your school if you’re planning to host the exams at your own venue – this includes tips on accessibility, test day photos, and exam security.

Candidate experience videos

Sitting for an exam can be a stressful experience for your students, especially if they have never taken a language test before. These videos show them what it’s like to take a Cambridge English Qualification, and reassures them that there’s nothing to worry about.

Ricardo’s story shows what it’s like to take Pre A1 Starters, A1 Movers or A2 Flyers, and Sofia’s story shows what it’s like to take one of the higher-level qualifications. You can watch the videos on our YouTube channel, or download them to use in the classroom.
