Teach-Primary-Issue-19.8

24 Welcome... to the Teach Primary Awards 2025! We’ve done the hard work so you don’t have to – hand-picking, testing and ranking resources that really make a difference in schools . Expect a mix of the tried-and-true and the brand new. What do they all have in common? ✔ They work. ✔ They save you time. ✔ They make teaching that little bit easier. Of course, every school is different – what works brilliantly in one setting might need tweaking in another. But we hope these winners give you a taste of what’s possible, and plenty of inspiration to make your teaching even more rewarding.
