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.
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.
Take a look at our support for Primary and Secondary schools:
Mental health and wellbeing support
The Wellbeing Zone aims to provide a space dedicated to support all ages. It's packed with resources suitable for teachers, parents and young people. You’ll be able to find resources from advice on coping with anxiety to fun activities to support wellbeing.
How do Pearson resources align to the EEF tiered approach?
The EEF recommends that a tiered approach can offer a useful framework for thinking about how to balance different challenges created by whole school returns, as well as helping to focus on a small number of strategies that will have the biggest difference.
Government Funding for Education 2021
Following the Government's announcement on 24 February 2021, we've created a factsheet to highlight the elements of the new education recovery package for children and young people. This will be supported with a new £700 million package to help young people in England catch up on lost learning due to the pandemic.
