Questions and answers

Questions about 0510 / 0511.

Who should take IGCSE English 0510 or 0511?

These syllabuses suit learners whose first language is not English but who already have a working knowledge of the language, often while studying through English-medium education.

What is the difference between 0510 and 0511?

In 0510, speaking is reported separately and does not contribute to the written syllabus grade. In 0511, speaking counts towards the overall syllabus grade. Students should confirm the entry used by their school or exam centre.

Does Oracsdemia provide 0510 resources?

Yes. The course area can include public lessons and resources, while enrolled students can access material assigned to their course through the student portal.
