This page explain Level Up English Club's Curriculum we use CEFR framework. How we track progress Understanding CEFR, and how we use it at Level Up English Club Every lesson your child takes is built on the CEFR framework and aligned with Cambridge YLE and Cambridge English Qualifications. Our curriculum is designed to support learners at every English level and help them build real English skills, including confident spoken English. What is the CEFR? The CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) is the international standard used to describe how well someone can use a language. It splits ability into six main levels, from A1 (beginner) to C2 (mastery), and describes what a learner can actually do at each stage — understand, speak, read and write — rather than just how many words they know. Not tied to age. CEFR describes ability, not a school year or birthday — two students the same age can sit at very different levels. 🟣 15 teaching levels. Our curriculum breaks the CEFR's broad bands into 15 structured levels, so progress feels achievable step by step. 🟣 Recognised worldwide. Schools, universities and employers across the world use CEFR to understand language ability at a glance. 🟣 Two ways to learn with us Both class formats follow the same CEFR framework and the same three age groups — they just build different skills. Combine both formats for accelerated learning. 25 minutes 1-to-1 Structured classes Your child's core lessons, working step by step through our 15-level curriculum at their own pace. One-to-one, so pacing is personal to your child Follows the structured curriculum, level by level Focused on speaking and real-life communication Regular progress tracking and feedback Ends with Unit Assessments and Level Evaluations 45 minutes Small group conversation Small-group, fun, conversation classes, grouped by the same age bands, built around engaging, real-world topics. Maximum 5 students of similar-age, similar-level peers Follows the structured curriculum, level by level International classmates Engaging, interactive lesson Builds confidence and communication skills Our Core Curriculum for Every English Level Every student begins with a trial class, where experienced teachers assess their level and place them at the right starting point. As they progress, regular reviews and assessments help ensure steady, measurable growth in both English skills and speaking confidence. At the end of each assessment, your child receives a certificate indicating the CEFR level they have achieved.

Motivated older students who progress beyond B2 can continue towards C1 Advanced. How we track progress Moving up a CEFR level is never just a feeling — it's checked and celebrated at every stage. 1️⃣ Placement at the right level Every new student is assessed before their first lesson, so they begin at the CEFR level that matches their ability — not their age or year group. 2️⃣ Unit Assessments Each unit within a level ends with a short assessment, so both student and teacher can see that the material has landed before moving on. 3️⃣ Level Evaluations At the end of each level, a fuller evaluation checks long-term growth across listening, speaking, reading and writing — not just the most recent unit. 4️⃣ Certificate of Completion Every student receives a Certificate of Completion at the end of each assessment — a tangible marker of progress to celebrate at home.
