Classroom Resources

Classroom Resources are a series of integrated resources for direct use in the classroom to support deep learning. They cover a range curriculum areas and age groups.

Subscribers to the Creative Teaching and Learning Topic can create their own Classroom Resources, which can cover similar or more limited objectives. You can choose to publish them within your school/Trust network or even to the TeachingTimes network. 

Resources created by us are designed to act as a platform for teachers to deliver effective cross-curriculum projects and project-based-learning strategies. We believe this is a key curriculum approach for the future. However, the resources can be used for any teaching objective.
