Organisation of the ‘archive’ table 
Overview: The collated table of descriptors for both age groups serves as an archive reference document SEPARATE TO THIS DOCUMENT, and contains the following 
components: 
Left hand column 
containing the CEFR 
extended set of 
illustrative descriptors, 
with rows for each 
CEFR level, including 
‘plus levels’, pre-A1, 
and new scales as 
features of the 
extended set. 
Columns containing the collated ELP / validated descriptors that correspond to the CEFR extended set 
of illustrative descriptors, with cells left blank where there is no evident correspondence. Each ELP 
descriptor mapped is referenced to the original ELP source and original stated level, though the level 
allocated by row may have been re-interpreted in the mapping process. 
Columns indicating perceived relevance of the CEFR 
descriptors to adaptation for the two broad age groups.
