The DELF Prim exam is a French proficiency test developed by the French Ministry of Education, internationally recognized and
valid for life. It is designed to assess the communicative skills of a candidate in a real-life situation, using authentic documents,
rather than the linguistic and formal grammatical knowledge.
Four skills are evaluated through two examinations: Collective examination (listening, reading, writing) and Individual
examination (speaking).
Structure
The DELF Prim is a specially adapted version of the DELF diplomas for children who are beginners in French and who are of
