The Future of Design Education - a case study with University of Sussex
Embracing Sustainability: University of Sussex's Product Design degree program is leading the way
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.

A future for higher education Engineering in the UK
King College London (KCL) boasts an engineering degree course that is rethinking how students are prepared for their eventual career in the industry. Claire Lucas, Professor of Engineering teaching and learning, was kind enough to open the doors on the undergraduate programme being developed, that might inspire teachers of design and technology to rethink how best to prepare students for an engineering degree pathway, if not through the vocational qualification route.
Today's young people are grappling with a rapidly changing world, confronting complex issues that range from climate change and conflict to the aftermath of the Covid pandemic.
With the World Health Organization reporting that depression, anxiety and behavioural disorders are among the leading causes of illness and disability among adolescents, the call to equip young people with effective tools and supportive strategies is urgent.
