Yes. Please search for ESOL Skills for Life Entry 2 in this link.215HAN wrote:I have just checked the certificate and this reads as follows:
Ascentis Entry Level Certificate in ESOL Skills for Life (Speaking and Listening) (Entry 2)
Is this valid?
Interesting. Although Ascentis is registered on ofqual. But this report tells it didnt comply with Cambridge English standards in 2011 (see page 4).215HAN wrote:Yes, I have checked this and it does show ESOL Entry 2.
However, it does not mention the awarding body although the test done is on the ofqual register.
should i need to worry or not and go ahead with citizenship application?
Sorry to say Ascentis Entry Level Certificate in ESOL Skills for Life (Speaking and Listening) (Entry 2) is at level A2 in the CEFR grading system. (This is below level B1).215HAN wrote:Also just to add, the gov website states the following:
3. Approved English language qualifications
You can prove your knowledge of English by having an English level B1, B2, C1 or C2 level qualification that’s one of the following:
an ESOL qualification at Entry 3 or higher (eg Level 1 or 2) on the Ofqual register taken in England, Wales or Northern Ireland
an ESOL qualification at Scottish Qualifications Framework levels 4, 5 or 6 awarded by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) and taken in Scotland
on one of the Home Office’s lists of recognised English tests and qualifications - look at the newer list if you’re applying on or after 6 April 2015
This to me indicates it is valid but still have a slight doubt!
