The pathway
KOKOland's Cambridge pathway is built into our year-long English courses for children and teens.
This isn't a few weeks of intensive cramming, but a gradual educational journey, built to support each student over time.
The pathway includes:
- 1an entry test
- 2a full year's teaching plan
- 3official Cambridge materials
- 4language consolidation activities
- 5mock exams and exam preparation
- 6ongoing progress monitoring
- At the end of the school year: the Cambridge exam, at school.
On site
At the end of the school year, Cambridge exams are held directly on site, at KOKOland. This allows for:
- continuity between study and exam
- a familiar, reassuring environment
- better concentration
- less stress for children and teens
Students sit the exam in the place where they learned, with teachers, spaces and routines that are already familiar.
Families
- A serious, recognised pathway
- Gradual, natural preparation
- Exams held at school

- A long-term outlook
At KOKOland, certification is the natural result of a pathway done well, not a standalone goal.
