Introduction

Pre A1 Starters, A1 Movers and A2 Flyers offer a comprehensive approach to testing the English of learners in
primary and lower secondary education.
A2 Flyers is the third level in the system. Test instructions are very simple and consist only of words and
structures specified in the syllabus.
The complete exam lasts about one hour and a quarter and has the following components: Listening, Reading
and Writing, and Speaking.

length number of parts number of items

Listening approx. 25 minutes 5 25

Reading and Writing 40 minutes 7 44

Speaking 7–9 minutes 4 –

Candidates need a pen or pencil for the Reading and Writing paper, and coloured pens or pencils for the
Listening paper. All answers are written on the question papers.

Listening
In general, the aim is to focus on the ‘here and now’ and to use language in meaningful contexts. In addition
to multiple-choice and short-answer questions, candidates are asked to use coloured pencils to mark their
responses to one task. There are five parts. Each part begins with a clear example.
