Secondary students and parents
We're committed to helping every learner to achieve their full potential. We know that the school closures and cancellation of the summer exams this year have been unsettling and we're working hard to keep you up to date with the latest support and advice.
Read more about the support we're providing to students, parents and carers to help make the summer 2021 processes more transparent, and to help you understand what Ofqual and the Department for Education have asked your teachers to do to ensure that you receive a fair grade this summer.
To help you continue your learning this term, whether in school or at home, we have a range of free and paid-for resources to support learners progress and restore their confidence. Find out more below.

Free online GCSE lessons for English, Maths and Science
As we continue to support GCSE teaching and learning during COVID-19, we’re launching a brand-new series of free online GCSE lessons for English, Maths and Science. These lessons will be streaming live from the Pearson UK Learning YouTube channel.
To help all GCSE-level students continue to engage with their English, Maths and Science learning, we have partnered with knowledgeable and experienced subject specialists to deliver our online lessons.

Free learning tools and activities
We're working hard to give you free access to activities and tools for literacy, maths, science, modern languages and more. We'll keep this page updated with new links as they become available. Sign up above to keep up to date by email.


History topic of the month
Our history team have put their heads together to come up with some topics highlighting significant moments of diversity and inclusion throughout history. Aimed at Key Stage 3 students, we hope these topics will help to generate some stimulating discussion in their classroom.
Every month we will provide a downloadable worksheet featuring information about the topic and discussion questions to help get the conversation going, as well as a poster.
Student webinars for Project success
We're here to help your learners to develop the skills, confidence and motivation they need to achieve future success.
So, we've created a new series of webinars to guide them in doing this through project work - accessible for learners of all abilities.
Our new lesson-style webinars have been created in partnership with AccessEd who specialise in creating digital resources that help secondary students build the essential skills for university and career success.

BTEC Works
BTECs are high-quality, career-focused qualifications grounded in the real world of work. BTEC courses focus on skills-based learning and are designed around themed units. This practical approach allows BTEC learners to develop and apply the knowledge and skills that employers, colleges and universities are looking for.
You can study a BTEC alongside (or instead of) GCSEs or A Levels at school or college or as a qualification at a training provider centre allowing you to start building the skills you'll need after you leave education, now. BTEC Works.
