The placement test. Your child will do a written test of about 1 hour followed by an interview by a British Council teacher to check their spoken English. This helps us to assess your child's ability level. We will then give you a choice of class days and times, depending on availability.   

To register for the course. After the placement test we recommend that you register your child for the course immediately as places are limited. To reserve a place on the course, you must pay the full amount. However, if you want to wait, the placement test results will remain valid for the next three terms (seven-and-a-half months) and you may register at a later date.

To register your child for a course you will need:

the course fee   
the placement test fee receipt/certificate   

On payment of course fees you will receive a receipt, a class schedule, a British Council folder for your child, the course outline and information about which course book your child will use. You can buy the course book from the CG Associates Bookshop or the CG Associates agent at the British Council Kandy.
