CEF (Common European Framework)

What's it?

The Common European Framework provides a common basis for the elaboration of language syllabuses, curriculum guidelines, examinations, textbooks, etc. across Europe. It describes in a comprehensive way what language learners have to learn to do in order to use a language for communication and what knowledge and skills they have to develop so as to be able to act effectively. The description also covers the cultural context in which language is set. The Framework also defines levels of proficiency which allow learners’ progress to be measured at each stage of learning and on a life-long basis.

Effective Operational Proficiency which was called ‘Effective Proficiency’ by Trim, ‘Adequate Operational Proficiency’ by Wilkins, and represents an advanced level of competence suitable for more complex work and study tasks.

Mastery (Trim: ‘comprehensive mastery’; Wilkins: ‘Comprehensive Operational Proficiency’), corresponds to the top examination objective in the scheme adopted by ALTE (Association of Language Testers in Europe). It could be extended to include the more developed intercultural competence above that level which is achieved by many language professionals.

Vantage, reflecting the third Council of Europe content specification, a level described as ‘Limited Operational Proficiency’ by Wilkins, and ‘adequate response to situations normally encountered’ by Trim.

Threshold, reflecting the Council of Europe content specification.

Waystage, reflecting the Council of Europe content specification.

Breakthrough, corresponding to what Wilkins in his 1978 proposal labelled ‘Formulaic Proficiency’, and Trim in the same publication1 ‘Introductory’.

Why is it needed?

In the words of the Intergovernmental Symposium held in Rüschlikon, SwitzerlandNovember 1991, on the initiative of the Swiss Federal Government, on: ‘Transparency andCoherence in Language Learning in Europe: Objectives, Evaluation, Certification’:

1. A further intensification of language learning and teaching in member countriesis necessary in the interests of greater mobility, more effective internationalcommunication combined with respect for identity and culturaldiversity, better access to information, more intensive personal interaction,improved working relations and a deeper mutual understanding.

2. To achieve these aims language learning is necessarily a life-long task to bepromoted and facilitated throughout educational systems, from pre-schoolthrough to adult education.

3. It is desirable to develop a Common European Framework of reference forlanguage learning at all levels, in order to:.
• promote and facilitate co-operation among educational institutions indifferent countries;.

• provide a sound basis for the mutual recognition of language qualifications;The Common European Framework in its political and educational context5.

• assist learners, teachers, course designers, examining bodies and educationaladministrators to situate and co-ordinate their efforts.
