Due to the ongoing crisis in Sudan, we have suspended all operations including Examinations until further notice. This includes registration for any exams and the suspension of the following exams scheduled in May and June: the May/June IGCSEs, A 'Levels and Checkpoint exams, IELTS, CIPS and the Cambridge English exams. The safety and security of our colleagues and customers is our highest priority. We hope to restart our work when it is safe to do so. 
Please note communication on exams will be shared by British Council through its official channels. 
For any queries, write to: info@sd.britishcouncil.org

If you take IELTS on paper, your Speaking test will take place on a different day to the other sections of the test, in a 7-day window before or after the main test day.
