A1 English Language Test In Bangkok

[10120]

My partner wishes to take the A1 English language test asap so we can apply for the UK settlement visa.

I find so much conflciting infornation, and particularly, Thsi schools insisting on offering services in addition to the basic A1 test, such as 'how to write emails' which seems superfluous

All we want is a place to take the test. Is there such a place in central Bangkok? Anywhere that is tried and 'tested'?

Grateful for any help!

For some reason, the UKBA in Thailand website no longer lists the approved test providers in Thailand!

This is the full list of approved providers; one suggestion is that you contact them to ask if they provide the test in Bangkok.

The British Council do offer English courses, but these appear to be way above the level required. However, they may be able to advise you on a suitable course or exam.

Most other courses and tests in Thailand are aimed at those who want to learn English for business use. They will include reading and writing and concentrate on business language etc.

However, the results scored in reading and writing are irrelevant. As long as the applicant scores A1 or better in speaking and listening, that is all that is required for their visa application; even if the actual test is failed.
