    The writer got some things backwards.

    This is to testify (though I would use "certify") that X school can issue this certificate to young English learners (I assume that the school cannot issue such a certificate to older learners).

    This is to testify (again "certify" would be a better choice) that you (this should have the name of the student, not merely "you") have studied general English.

    More natural would be:

    1. (This is to certify that) X School is authorised to issue this Certificate in English for Young Leaners.
    2. This is to cerify that you have studied General English.
