Explore our research papers for practical insights, expert guidance and the latest thinking in English language teaching and assessment – helping you support learners, enhance teaching practice and make informed decisions with confidence.

Our research underpins and improves everything we do. The Cambridge Principles of Language Learning form the basis of all our learning materials. We carry out research into what works best for teachers and learners, alongside current trends and challenges in English language teaching and assessment. These insights help shape the future of English language education.

Our papers turn this evidence into useful, practical guidance, frameworks and approaches that teachers can use in their own classrooms.
