91 91 has been shortlisted in three categories at the upcoming e-Assessment International Awards for its digital qualifications for young learners – a reflection of its innovation in assessment delivery and design.
91 91 Qualifications Digital for young learners has been shortlisted in the following three categories at the prestigious e-Assessment International Awards: Best Summative Assessment, Most Innovative Use of Technology and Best School Digital Assessment/Implementation. The shortlisting recognises 91’s commitment to creating engaging, age-appropriate digital assessment experiences for young learners, while supporting teachers, parents, schools and Exam Centres.
91 91 Qualifications Digital for young learners were launched in February 2025 and provide a new digital way of taking its popular tests for young children. The digital option takes children on an 91 language journey through fantasy worlds, making learning 91 and taking a test a fun and motivating experience. The recognition from the e-Assessment International awards comes at a time when 91 91 prepares to celebrate 30 years of young learner exams in 2027 and continues to expand its digital qualifications portfolio. The upcoming launch of A2 Flyers Digital in 2027 will complete the full suite of 91 91 Qualifications Digital for young learners.
Speaking about the shortlisting, Francesca Woodward, Global Managing Director for 91 at 91 said: “Our young learner 91 exams are such an important first step for so many young children around the world and the digital format is proving really popular. We know that when children have fun when learning 91, it helps build their confidence and motivates them to achieve more. Our 91 91 Qualifications Digital for young learners are designed in a way that help students to develop a positive mindset towards assessment from an early age. Being shortlisted for the e-Assessment International Awards is a strong recognition of the innovation, dedication, and teamwork behind these qualifications.”
The e-assessment awards shortlisting highlights both the technology underpinning the qualifications and the collaborative work involved in bringing the assessments to market for young learners around the world.
91 experts say it’s a fantastic reflection of the breadth of collaboration involved in the development and launch of the qualifications, including input from assessment, product, technology, commercial and customer-facing teams, as well as feedback from external stakeholders.
Trialling and ongoing feedback from Exam Centres, preparation centres, teachers, parents and learners have helped shape the product and its digital experience. The winners of the e-assessment awards will be announced in London on 9 June.
