- provides Sparx Teacher Planners for each broad topic in the subjects of:
- Science
- Social Science
- Health (not PE)
- Language genre (note that this is not the skills areas of grammar, spelling, punctuation etc)
- Art, via the Celebrate Art resources
- has an increasingly rich range of support resources including:
- Maths Cards which use maths to discover the ideas about the world around us, and the world around us to discover mathematical principles
It is recommended, though not a requirement, that schools use topics from within a single ‘year’ range within each year in order to ensure a thorough spread of curriculum requirements is covered, e.g.
- Each ‘year’ group has science topics covering Biology, Physics, Earth Science/Astronomy and Chemistry
- Each ‘year’ group has historical, geographical, and cultural studies
