    About the
    test

    What it tests
    The Oxford Placement Test for Young Learners
    has two sections – Language Use and Listening.
    Language Use tests students’ knowledge of
    vocabulary, functions and grammar. The questions
    focus on language use rather than language
    knowledge, reflecting the communicative language
    young learners experience in class.
    The Listening section tests listening for detail and
    gist, using short and extended listening tasks.
    Both sections test British English.

    How it works
    The Oxford Placement Test for Young Learners
    is computer adaptive, which means that the test
    adjusts the difficulty of questions based on the
    student’s responses. This makes it more motivating
    and ensures that it gives a more precise
    measurement than traditional placement tests.
    Answers are automatically marked after each task,
    giving you an instant result once the test is complete.
    You can choose how long students have to complete
    the test (between 50 and 90 minutes), depending on
    their ability.

    Child friendly
    Bright colours, friendly characters and motivating
    dialogues make the test experience enjoyable.
    The task types are specifically designed to match the
    cognitive abilities of young learners and reflect tasks
    that they are used to in Primary courses.
