Pre A1 Starters Digital

Pre A1 Starters Digital is the first of our digital Cambridge English Qualifications for young learners, set in an underwater world. Children create themselves as avatars and work their way along a map across a turtle island, completing tasks and earning rewards.

These tests introduce children to everyday written and spoken English, through tasks designed to reflect the world they're growing up in.
