Downloading whole units
You can now save yourself time by downloading all lessons in a new unit sequence to use now or come back to later.
You'll see a Download unit button on any unit page of our teaching resources:
You'll be asked a few questions about what you use our resources for and then you'll be able to log in to download whole units of resources.
For more information read our help article about downloading full units.
Logging in will also give you access to Aila, our AI lesson assistant. See the heading AI Experiments below.

They include the overarching curriculum and subject principles, how it reflects the national curriculum, information on delivery such as how much curriculum time they cover and how we use threads to provide curriculum coherence.

You can now share a starter quiz, worksheet, video and exit quiz from any lesson with your pupils. This feature is found at the top of any lesson page in our teacher area.
