ORT: Open Venue for International Exams Administration

Last Friday 20th, November, the administration of the Cambridge-ESOL international exams started. Our School, for the first time, was the open venue to the community. Approximately 120 ORT School students were involved and other schools sat for the exam in our premises.

ORT Schools prepare their students for the Cambridge-ESOL examinations. After that, they take a computer-based test, since it complies with the technological standards requested.

ORT Schools have incorporated Cambridge-ESOL exams to the English curriculum so as to offer students better training, to promote the study of the language, to facilitate the access to superior education and to motivate students to get more confident in their ability to use English successfully.

The exams cover the different levels of knowledge in English and our students have been prepared all the year round with material specially designed by the schools, and in all the linguistic skills: Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing.
