When is the Cambridge English speaking exam?

The Cambridge exam date for your speaking component is determined by our examination centre and will take place within the specific speaking window set by Cambridge English. We will communicate the exact date and time to all candidates via email approximately two weeks before the first exam date. If you have not received this confirmation at least seven days before the Speaking window begins, please contact us for assistance. 

It is important to note that for Young Learners, the Speaking exam takes place on the same day as the written components. For all other qualifications, please ensure you monitor your email closely as you prepare for your session. Once you are ready to choose your date and location, you can proceed to the next step of your registration. 

More information regarding exam dates, fees, and locations 

To ensure your assessment journey is as smooth as possible, please keep the following logistical details in mind. Because we strive to offer the most current sessions, our registration windows, Cambridge exam dates, and fees are subject to change throughout the year. We recommend checking these sections regularly, as places are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you are opting for a digital exam, please remember that these sessions must be attended at a British Council partner venue and are not available to be taken at home. Seats for digital formats are limited, and once a booking is confirmed, candidate transfers between examining centres such as moving your session from Athens to Kos are not permitted. 

For Young Learners (YLE), we organise sessions through the year and we work in close partnership with schools and institutions throughout Greece. These Cambridge exam dates are set individually with each partner. If you are a parent or student registering through a school, please contact your local coordinator for specific scheduling and venue details.
