When test results show a 32% improvement, that’s not coincidence – that’s proof. In January 2026, students of Savremena Primary School from fourth to eighth grade took Cambridge Progression tests and achieved results that are a third better than in September. A third. This isn’t marginal improvement. This is a leap that confirms that the approach to teaching, student dedication, and the system they work with – function.

Cambridge Progression tests are not classical knowledge tests. They don’t check memorization, but understanding. They don’t ask “what do you know,” but “how do you think.” They’re focused on analysis, application of knowledge in new situations, and problem-solving ability. And that’s precisely where their value lies – they measure whether a student truly understands the material, or just reproduces it. The results of January testing show that Savremena students don’t just know – they understand, apply, and progress. And fast.

One of the greatest advantages of the Cambridge program at Savremena Primary School is continuous tracking of student development. Testing in September and January are not isolated events – they are part of a system that enables teachers to see how students progress throughout the school year, in which areas they achieve the greatest progress, and where additional guidance and support are needed.

Based on results, teachers can precisely adapt teaching to the needs of each class, as well as individual students. This means that teaching is not static – it changes, adapts, improves depending on how students respond to the material. And it’s precisely this flexibility, combined with the structure offered by the Cambridge curriculum, that gives the results we see today.

The 32% progress compared to previous testing is not just a number. It’s confirmation that a learning approach combining understanding of material, project work, discussion, and critical thinking gives concrete and measurable results. It’s confirmation that the Cambridge program at Savremena doesn’t just work theoretically – it works in practice, in the classroom, in daily work with students.

That the quality of work at Savremena Primary School has been recognized at an international level is confirmed by the recent visit of Cambridge International Education representatives to our school. During the visit, Cambridge representatives had the opportunity to attend classes, talk with teachers and students, and learn about the way the Cambridge program is implemented at Savremena. They particularly emphasized the high level of student engagement, contemporary work methods, and the results students achieve, assessing that Savremena represents an example of quality Cambridge program implementation. On that occasion, further cooperation and development of the Cambridge program within our educational system was announced, which represents additional confirmation of work quality and the international education standard we cultivate.

This is not just a compliment – it’s recognition. When representatives of an organization that sets global education standards say that Savremena represents an example of quality implementation, it means we’re doing something right. And that we’re doing it at a level measured by international standards. Cambridge Progression tests are not just knowledge assessment, but also an important part of a system that helps students develop academic confidence, self-assurance, and analytical thinking ability. Through this method of progress tracking, students get a clear picture of their own development, while teachers and parents can track how knowledge is built and improved over time.

The results of January testing once again confirm that Savremena Primary School students confidently progress through the Cambridge program, developing knowledge and skills that will be an important foundation for their further academic path. The 32% progress is not just statistics – it’s proof that the system works, that students are growing, and that Savremena Primary School builds education that is measured by international standards and delivers visible results.
