Beyond the chapter

The chapter first. These carry it further.

The exam, and notes for teachers

🎓 The exam at the end — Cambridge A2 Key
Reading & Writing

1 hour · 7 parts · 50% of the marks — from signs and notices to a 35-word picture story.

Listening

30 min · 5 parts · 25% — every recording plays twice; numbers and spelled names carry the marks.

Speaking

8–10 min per pair · 2 parts · 25% — an interview, then a real conversation with a partner.

The scale: 120–132 is a Grade C pass, 133–139 Grade B, and 140+ is Grade A — a certificate that says B1. Below 120 still earns an A1 certificate, so nobody leaves with nothing.

🗓 The exam track — 20 weeks to the certificate

A separate extension for after the ten chapters: one part of the real exam per week, a mini-mock every fourth week, and a full-mock block in weeks 17–20.

🍎 What a chapter contains

One story, met three times over — then 14 modules across the six skills and the unit's Culture File, and a game that closes the chapter. The story audio and the Culture File audio both play inside the page. Nothing is a separate worksheet; the chapter is the lesson.

🏛 Beyond the classroom — heritage visits
The British Museum

Britain in objects a beginner can read — coins, clocks, maps and the things people carried.

Oxford

Colleges, quads and questions: where big ideas learned to speak English.

Cambridge

The university behind the exam — and the river that taught it to think.

Programmes through Seven Global, with visit guides written for the students' level of English.
