Diagnostic test
Guidance for teachers
The test should be done in class. Any number of students can take the test at the same time.
Photocopy the Diagnostic test answer sheet and give one to each student. Students select their answers from the
options given on pages 8-9 of their coursebooks. The CD should be played without interruption.
It is important to understand that the Diagnostic test is not a precision instrument. It will help you in deciding
whether particular students are in a position to start preparing for a Grade 3 or Grade 4 examination. It will help
you in the sense that it tests listening comprehension and receptive knowledge of appropriate responses to
questions. However, to this information you must add your own knowledge of the students speaking skills, and
additionally for ISE I, their productive writing skills and their reading skills. The test is designed to determine
whether students are ready to start preparing for a specific examination not whether they are ready to take it.
When assessing students readiness, you, as the teacher, must also add your knowledge of the individual student
in terms of her/his application, motivation and normal rate of progress.

The questions are distributed as follows:


Questions 1 20 relate to the Grade 3 syllabus.
Questions 21 40 relate to the Grade 4 syllabus.
ANSWERS
1 C 9 A 17 B 25 B 33 A
2 A 10 C 18 A 26 A 34 B
3 B 11 A 19 C 27 C 35 C
4 B 12 B 20 A 28 B 36 C
5 B 13 C 21 C 29 A 37 B
6 B 14 C 22 A 30 B 38 B
7 A 15 B 23 A 31 C 39 C
8 A 16 B 24 C 32 C 40 A

When interpreting scores (see below), bear in mind the knowledge you as the teacher bring regarding the
following:
Speaking skills General learning rate
Reading skills Writing skills
Motivation Application

Interpretation of scores
10 or less indicates that a student who starts preparing for a Grade 3 examination still needs to study most of
the language functions and lexis before attempting the interview.
11 21 indicates that students know some of the grammar and vocabulary for Grade 3 and the teacher
could spend more time on phonology and communication skills.
22 29 indicates that a student is probably ready to start preparing for a Grade 4 examination.
over 30 indicates that a student has a good grasp of the language areas for Grade 4 and the teacher can
focus more preparation time on Topic preparation and pronunciation.
