Computers for Kids: the Pearson donation that’s set to help young people nationwide
For many schools during the COVID-19 pandemic, remote learning has been the key to sustaining a semblance of normality.
People, pedagogy and progress
Skills for Writing
Alongside Professor Debra Myhill, we've developed Skills for Writing to provide an evidence-based approach to accelerating progress in writing at KS3, which:
- Embeds the principles of the Grammar for Writing pedagogy
- Teaches grammar in a contextualised way
- Motivates your students to write independently
Teacher Partner Programme
All of our products and services are developed with our educational experts, and have the rigour and attention to detail that we know customers expect of us.
We also recognise that these products need to work in the real world - our customers are using our products each and every day to support their own best practice.
Pedagogy
What makes an excellent teacher? Research shows that a good sense of humour and a conversational style are two of the key ingredients of great teaching.
At the heart of our literacy resources is the importance of how they are taught. Take a look at how we've worked with Professor Debra Myhill, at The University of Exeter, to embed the Grammar for Writing pedagogy.

Primary Digital Learning
If the past year has taught us anything, it’s that enabling learning for primary children through digital technology is hard without preparation. Schools that had invested in pedagogy, technology and partnerships have ridden the storms of lockdowns better and with less disruption.
Primary teachers have been amazingly adaptable and creative in their solutions. So much is normally built into the physical spaces and human interactions on top of the formal curriculum, that moving to online resources to deliver the curriculum while maintaining relationships with the children was a big ask.
As we find a way out of lockdown and the 21/22 academic year comes into view this is a good time to explore how to make digital provision a more natural part of school life by integrating the best aspects of our lockdown experiences.
