Check: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/cec/language-testing.asp

And yes, you need to retake. You'll need a minimum of 5 in writing.

Hi John For CEC you need to approve each section by itself, (the overall doesnt work), the scores should be at least L5 R4 W5 S5 your score is
Listening=5.5,
Reading=4.5,
Writing=4.5,
Speaking=6.0
so Im toby is right because the writing section is not helping you, and need to retake the test, regards!
