DELE

EEB4 has signed an agreement with the Instituto Cervantes of Brussels to certify the level of Spanish of pupils and staff members.

Since 2016, s6 and s7 pupils benefit from a discount on the cost of exams (possible through the school) as well as the possibility of taking their exams during class hours at the Instituto Cervantes of Brussels, accompanied by their teacher.

The DELE is the official diploma that certifies the knowledge of Spanish as a foreign language. It is awarded by the Director of the Instituto Cervantes on behalf of the Spanish Ministry of Education. The exams are held twice a year – in May and November – in 500 examination centres in more than 100 countries around the world. They include the following test:

  • Reading comprehension
  • Written expression
  • Oral comprehension
  • Grammar & Vocabulary
  • Oral expression
