The Cambridge MidYIS (Middle Years Information System) test is a digital, adaptive baseline assessment set by Cambridge and administered by KBH, for 11-14 year-old students (Year 7). It is used by schools worldwide to measure potential and aptitude in vocabulary, mathematics, non-verbal reasoning, and skills. It is curriculum-independent and helps schools establish a baseline to track progress, predict GCSE, O Level and IGCSE performance, and identify learning needs.
The Year 7 Midyis assessment covers four areas:
Vocabulary: Word fluency and understanding.
Mathematics: Logical thinking and numerical concepts (focus on speed).
Non-verbal: 3D visualization, spatial awareness, and pattern recognition.
Skills: Proofreading and perceptual speed.
Each year KBH conducts the Cambridge Year 7 Midyis test for its students. KBH has achieved the highest average test scores globally for the Cambridge Year 7 MIDYIS assessment for three years in a row for 2022-2023, 2023-2024 and 2024-2025.
