This paper describes the process of design and compilation of the Primary Education Learners’ English Corpus (PELEC), a learner corpus which includes written (14,577 words) and spoken materials (47,032 words) from Primary Education learners in the Autonomous Community of Cantabria. It is composed of data from a total of 252 students in the fourth and sixth grade of Primary Education (aged 9–10 and 11–12, respectively) who were studying in five different state schools which followed either a Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) or an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) approach.
