Assessment schedule

Assessment is spread across the term rather than saved for the end, so both teacher and learner can see progress while there is still time to act on it.

  1. Week 1: diagnostic.
  2. Week 4: reading mock.
  3. Week 6: listening mock.
  4. Weeks 7–8: full mock and individual feedback. N3 and N2 use separate papers, groups and criteria; passing the exam is not promised.
