Young Learners English
In today’s world, learning English is a vital skill that help the children achieve their full potential in later life. The sooner they start learning, the better. With the right methods, children can learn English quickly, effectively and enjoyably. Once they have this initial grasp of English in Primary School, they will have a strong foundation which will be an advantage in their later studies. When children learn English, it is important that they learn English which is practical and useful. It is important that they learn to speak good English and work towards international standards that will prepare them for study abroad, or the international world of work.

Young Learners English (YLE) is a reliable and consistent measure of how well your child is doing in the skills of listening, speaking and reading and writing. Tests are designed to make learning fun and children are encouraged by working towards certificates and earning the ‘shields’ that record their progress. The Cambridge YLE was introduced in 1997 and is now taken in over 55 countries world-wide by over 260000 children. This test is relevant and interesting for the target age group of 7 to 13 years old. The programme is being implemented successfully at OP Jindal Modern School.
