Foundation English Test assesses English at a vocational level.
Foundation English Test offers a simpler and fairer assessment. It gives entry-level English users a chance to show what they can do, and not worry about what they can’t, with an accurate result that employers can rely on.
Many high-stakes English tests include tasks that assess the full range of proficiency levels. This makes them less suitable for those with basic or intermediate levels of English.
Foundation English Test only assesses lower levels of English, which makes it more appropriate for candidates who only require entry-level English (A1 to B1 levels on the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR)). It’s quicker to complete and more affordable.
