Shining a light on curriculum
Curriculum is at the heart of everything we do
We're working with schools, teachers and experts in education to understand the principles of an effectively-designed curriculum and create the very best resources and tools to help deliver it. From 'off-the-shelf' courses that promote a broad and balanced curriculum to a bespoke curriculum created using intelligent planning tools, we can support you through the planning, implementation and evaluation.
Supporting every learning journey
Schools across the UK have told us they’re navigating the impact of Covid-19 on education by focusing on building students’ knowledge, skills, confidence and wellbeing in readiness for their next steps.Ìý
As each learning journey is different, we offer a wide range of tools, resources and support you can use at every stage. From differentiated whole-class programmes and wellbeing services to targeted practice, intervention, tutoring and revision, there’s plenty to help your students make progress at their pace and in the ways that work best for them.Ìý

Reading and writing for pleasure
Do you remember reading and writing for pleasure during your school days? Perhaps your class had a cosy nook for devouring books during breaks – or maybe a teacher enthused you with the joy of making up your own stories just because. If so, you may not realise what a great springboard that was for later life.
