This is known as the "Kingsway Scale" which was developed by Kingsway English Centre in the 1990s. Nice and simple, just like the Celsius scale of temperature! We have been using and building
a databank of levels for over 30 years, so we know it works. On a day-to-day basis we think
you will find the Kingsway scale very convenient to use because it says what it is in a very
visual way. Many clients of Nursemark Live have adopted the Kingsway scale in their hiring procedures.
If you or your company use other scales to check your employees, the
Kingsway scale can be mapped directly if you wish. Our
Kingsway Scale fact sheet
shows this correlation across TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS and CEFR.
