Frequently asked questions
How does English placement testing for schools work?
You create an Assessment Center account, buy test credits, and invite students by email. Each student takes a CEFR-aligned online test, and their level appears in your dashboard — usually within minutes, so you can place whole classes at once.
How quickly are students placed?
Automated skills (grammar, vocabulary, reading and listening) are scored instantly. AI-scored speaking and writing typically return CEFR results within minutes, so a full cohort can be placed the same day instead of over days of manual testing.
Which English skills do you assess?
Depending on the test you choose, we cover grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, speaking and writing — each mapped to a CEFR level from A1 to C2.
Can we add our school's branding to reports?
Yes. Reports and certificates can carry your school's branding, so students and parents receive results that look like they came from your institution.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is credit-based, with volume discounts for larger cohorts. You only pay for the credits you use — there are no contracts or monthly minimums.
Are the results recognised?
Yes. International English Test is an ALTE Associate Member, and every result is aligned to the CEFR — the framework used by schools and institutions in 210+ countries.
Can we run a free pilot before buying credits?
Yes. You can start a free pilot to see the student experience, the scoring, and the school dashboard before committing to a credit pack.
Our English placement test evaluation method is based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This means that your result will fit into one of the CEFR grades recognized worldwide.
