Our aim at the academy is for all our younger students to at least leave the academy by the time they are 18 years old with this qualification. In fact many of our students are now achieving this certificate when they are 15 or 16 years old. First Certificate in English (FCE) is an exam for people who need to prove they can use everyday written and spoken English at a high level for work or study purposes.
FCE corresponds to the B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference from the Council of Europe. Typical abilities of an English speaker at B2 level are:
> CAN follow or give a talk on a familiar topic or keep up a conversation on a fairly wide range of topics.
> CAN scan texts for relevant information, and understand detailed instructions or advice.
> CAN make notes while someone is talking or write a letter including non-standard requests.
