Pearson support for dual curriculum schools
Choosing a dual curriculum approach gives learners the best of both worlds: a strong connection to their national curriculum and a clear route to globally recognised international qualifications.
Bring national and international learning into one connected pathway
Build a dual curriculum model with clarity and confidence
Dual curriculum delivery gives schools an opportunity to offer learners the best of both worlds: strong national foundations alongside internationally recognised qualifications. But combining two curriculum approaches can also create practical challenges, from curriculum mapping and timetabling to teacher support, assessment planning and parent communication.
Pearson works with schools to make dual curriculum delivery more coherent, manageable and learner-focused. We help you identify how national and international requirements can work together, where additional support may be needed, and how Pearson Edexcel qualifications and resources can strengthen your existing approach.
How Pearson can support your dual curriculum school
Curriculum mapping
Understand where national and international learning align, where gaps exist, and how to create a more joined-up programme.
Flexible pathways
Use Pearson Edexcel international qualifications and resources in a way that fits your school’s context.
Teaching support
Access training, professional development and guidance to help teachers deliver with confidence.
Assessment guidance
Support your assessment and exams teams with practical processes, timelines and qualification delivery.
Learner progression
Help students and families understand pathway options, transition points and opportunities for further study.
A pathway that keeps learners rooted and ready for the world
Through the Pearson Edexcel iProgress pathway, schools can access a connected learning journey for learners aged 5 to 19, including iPrimary, iLowerSecondary, International GCSE and International A level. This can sit alongside, within or in support of local curriculum requirements, helping schools create a pathway that reflects both national expectations and international opportunity.
With trusted qualifications, curriculum resources and practical implementation support, Pearson helps dual curriculum schools design learning journeys that feel coherent for teachers, credible for families and focused on real progress for learners.
