الاختبار المعياري للغة العربية

\n

Four skills, one honest number — and a report a parent can actually read.

\n

Available from SeptemberPaid add-on · charged per pupil

\n

What the Arabic Benchmark is

\n

Up to three times a year, your pupils sit the same four papers as every other Araboo school: listening, reading, speaking and writing, 25 marks each. They get a mark out of 100, a CEFR band, and a report a parent can actually read.

\n
\n

It answers a question a lesson-by-lesson score never can: is this working?

\n
\n

What a pupil sits

\n

Four papers, 25 marks each. They open like any other Araboo activity — no separate login, no exam software, nothing new to learn. Speaking and writing are marked by the pupil’s own teacher, so a voice recording is heard by someone who knows the child.

\n

What a teacher sees

\n\n

What a parent receives

\n

A single page. The mark, the band, the four skills broken out with what each level means, whether their child is above or below the average for their year, and what to work on next. No ranks against named children. No jargon.

\n

تقدّم يمكنك إثباته

\n

Each round is compared with the pupil’s own earlier result, not with a target plucked from the air. A small wobble is reported as steady, because ordinary marking noise is not progress. When Araboo says a pupil has improved, they have improved.

\n

A pupil’s first round has no progress figure at all — there is nothing yet to compare it with. That is honest, and it is why September matters.

\n

Ranking, and when we will not show it

\n

A pupil’s position within their own school year is available from the first round.

\n

A position across all schools is withheld until enough schools have taken part. With two or three schools, “3rd of 40” would look precise and mean nothing. Araboo will tell you when the figure becomes available rather than print one it cannot stand behind.

\n

Safeguarding

\n

Pupils who join with a class code and no email address appear throughout by their alias — Falcon-123, never a real name. Reports are handed to the teacher, never emailed to a pupil. Nothing in the Benchmark asks a child for personal information.

\n

Availability

\n

The Arabic Benchmark opens in September, with the baseline round. It is a paid add-on to a school plan, charged per pupil. Further rounds follow in February and May, so the first true progress figure arrives in February and the first full year of growth in May.
