Cambridge Essential English for Queensland invites students to communicate and interact with others effectively by studying language and texts that are relevant to their everyday lives.

Students are encouraged to develop critical and creative thinking skills as they consolidate essential vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and grammar skills, and prepare for the common internal assessment.

  • Comprehensively covers the new Essential English curriculum.
  • Written by a team of practising teachers with experience in curriculum development and assessment and links to the English Teachers Association of Queensland (ETAQ).
  • Includes a dedicated chapter for the Common Internal Assessment (CIA) in Unit 3, providing support to teachers and students with practice writing activities. Access to annotated model responses is also available in the digital version of the student text.
  • Reflects the interests of today’s students with a wide range of studied English texts including tattoos, graphic novels and a range of contemporary digital texts including films, documentaries, social media, podcasts, vlogs, blogs and more.
  • Features a range of scaffolded activities to develop, consolidate and apply vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and grammar skills as well as critical thinking and creative skills. The activities provide students with plenty of opportunities to respond to, and create texts, reflecting the syllabus' emphasis on text response and analytical writing.
  • Available at a great price for both classroom and homework use, providing everything students need to cover the course comprehensively and develop the skills they need to communicate effectively. 
  • Supports all teachers, including those new to teaching English, with annotated model responses to the practice writing activities that prepare students for the Common Internal Assessment (CIA). 
  • The glossex, a combination of glossary and an index, is a useful tool allowing students to expand their vocabulary by listing and defining important or difficult words. The glossex can also be downloaded from the Interactive Textbook. 
  • The Interactive Textbook engages students with its rich media, linked and embedded video and audio clips, and links to external websites.

Downloadable editable worksheets are available through Cambridge GO for schools that adopt Cambridge Essential English. Contact your Cambridge Education Resource Consultant or email [email protected] for more information and access.
