Adapting our curriculum maps

Our fully sequenced curriculum plans for each subject provide inspiration and a springboard for annual, termly and weekly planning for every teacher in your school. 

Each plan provides a curriculum rationale, an outline of all topic units available and how many lessons are in each. To help you, we’ve provided information on the pre-existing knowledge needed for any unit.  There is also a suggested sequenced order of lessons, if that works for you - but you are of course free to use the units and lessons in any order that suits you.

Each unit, lesson and individual elements (such as slides and worksheets) have their own web link, so you can pick and choose which bits you want to access, download, edit and adapt.

Using the parts of our resources that work best for schools can help to free up extra time for teachers to focus on the bits of the curriculum that they want to personalise.

Other uses

There could be times where you want to use our resources without any adaptations such as supporting absent pupils or setting cover. We recommend quickly mapping our resources against your existing curriculum so that you’re ready to go at short notice.
