FAQ

Do I need to sit an exam every time I complete a level?
No, you can sit just one exam at the end of your studies, usually this would be at the highest level you complete. 
For example, you start at beginner level and you finish at advanced, you only book an exam at advanced level. 

Are exams compulsory?
No, it is not compulsory to sit an exam at the end of your course. 
However, if you require a formal language qualification, you will need to sit an exam.
See more here.

Do I get a certificate when I complete the ESOL course?
Yes, you will gain a certificate of completion reflecting your marks and level. This confirms that you have had guided English language training at a certain level.

Our general ESOL courses include 5 tutor-marked assessments. See course descriptions for details.
The assessment practices are explained in detail (with examples) in the Assessment Guide which can be found on students' TMPs (Tutor Messaging Platform).
The minimum score required to pass any course is 60%/100%. This is minimum 60% on each assessment.
To be able to progress to the next level, ideally, students should achieve 85% or above. This score means that the student has 'established knowledge' at that level and is ready to move up. 
Students can still move up to the next level course even if their scores are between 60%- 84%, however, there may still be gaps in their knowledge that need addressing.
If you have any questions, please contact your tutor.
