Cambridge CEM

Cambridge CEM baseline assessments accurately measure a learners’ potential and progress. They are an invaluable tool in understanding and responding to their individual educational needs.

CEM assessments provide an objective view of your students’ strengths and abilities in key areas, highlight gaps in knowledge and help you shape your teaching to meet their learning needs. They also support educational tracking, giving you measures of an individual's potential and progress through school.

You can use results to plan teaching interventions and improve on any areas of weakness, helping to improve pupil outcomes. The data provided will also enable you to benchmark individual performance and understand potential, helping with predicting grades and setting targets.

Cambridge CEM assessments are available from early years to post-16.
