At Pearson, we are always trying to gain feedback from teaching experts across the nation in order to drive further improvements and developments. It's now more important than ever, that we aim to fully understand and support both teachers and learners by providing solutions and delivering what is really needed.
Hear from a couple of schools as they share their personal journeys and useful insight into how the Entry Level Certificates can provide a stepping stone to GCSE success.
All of our products and services are developed along 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.
Schools from all over the UK tell us about their experience of teaching with Pearson, from the ways in which Exploring Science is helping some schools to provide a broad and balanced science curriculum from KS3 to GCSE, to the way Science Bug is helping to spark imagination, fuel curiosity and nurture inspired and confident young scientists at Primary level.
As part of our commitment to providing you with the best switch experience, we asked centres who have recently switched to us for GCSE to describe their reasons for switching, the barriers they faced, and the level of support they received.
With the end-of-key-stage assessments imminent, here's a quick reminder of what the Rochford Review recommendations are for assessing children working 'working below the standards of the national curriculum tests but who are above the level of the P scales'.
At the same time that the government published the KS2 teacher assessment exemplifications, it also published guidance for KS1 teacher assessment, and though most of the guidance was as expected with regards to phonics and reading fluency there were a few interesting points.
The exemplifications for the end-of-KS2 tests have just been released with videos to support the paperwork, and while we’re fairly familiar with the curriculum this is the first time we have seen examples of what those objectives look like in practice. So what have we learned?
