What is the CEFRL?

The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL) has become the most widely accepted international reference for teaching and learning European languages and for the assessment of language proficiency.

The CEFRL sets clear standards to be attained at successive stages of learning and for evaluating outcomes in an internationally comparable manner. Our level progression and teaching philosophy are in line with the recommendations and guidelines of the CEFRL.
