Cambridge Flyers certificates awarded to 329 child learners (10-01-2010)

On 14 March 2010, VUS organized an Award Presentation Ceremony at the Opera House to grant Cambridge Flyers certificates to 329 child students. In the most recent test, VUS students’ average score was 11.3/15 which is higher than that of previous tests. Twenty found students got the top score of 15 Shields.

Cambridge Flyers, which is recognized by 135 countries in the world, is an international English certificate awarded to children from 6 to 12 years old. There are three levels: Starters, Movers and Flyers. This certificate helps students to be aware of their level of proficiency in all four skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing). Getting this certificate is a great beginning for children.

According to statistics from the Cambridge University Testing Center, VUS students’ average score in Cambridge tests are 30% higher than that of students in the region and the world. This is really a great achievement for VUS students and opens many doors to them in the future. Upon finishing the Flyers program, students are qualified to attend higher level programs such as Young Leaders, TOEIC Bridge, TOEIC and TOEFL iBT. Students can also attend high school English programs and apply for cultural exchange scholarship to study in the US or to apply directly to high schools in the UK, US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
