Results Release 

For paper-based exams, results are usually available approximately four to six weeks after the written examinations. 

For digital exams, most results are released 5-10 working days after the exam date. Any remaining results will be released during the following week. The final release date will be three weeks after the exam.

Certificates  

Certificates are sent by Cambridge English to the British Council approximately seven to ten weeks after paper-based exams, and three to four weeks after digital exams. 

Certificate Delivery  

Once we receive the certificates, you will receive an email invitation from us to collect your it.  

All children who take a Cambridge English Young Learners exam receive a certificate to recognise their achievement and help build their confidence. 

The certificate shows the number of Cambridge shields achieved for each part of the test, up to a maximum of five shields per part. One shield shows that a child can improve further in that skill, while five shields show that they perform very well. 

Children also receive a Statement of Results, which gives more detailed feedback on their performance. It includes the number of shields received for each part of the test, information on their strengths, areas for improvement and ideas on how they can continue developing their English. 

Schools, parents and learners can access results through Cambridge English Online Results Services when they are available. Please contact your preparation centre or authorised exam centre for access details. 

For digital Young Learners exams, the customised avatar created during the exam will also appear on the certificate and Statement of Results.

Clearer results: The scale helps candidates understand their performance in more detail, both overall and individual skills. 

Consistent reporting: Results are reported on the same scale across Cambridge English exams, making them easier to understand and compare. 

Easier comparison and progress tracking: Because the scale is aligned with the CEFR, IELTS and Cambridge English exams, it helps candidates, teachers and recognising organisations see how results compare and how a candidate is progressing from one level to the next. 

For further information, please visit the Cambridge English website. 

If your name is spelled incorrectly on your certificate (including spelling mistakes or incorrect word order), please contact us. 

  • Requests within six months of the certificate issue date will be corrected free of charge.
  • Requests after six months are subject to a fee. 
  • Requests after two years from the certificate issue date cannot be accepted.
