TES Connect currently hosts one of the world’s largest banks of teaching resources and lesson plans. At present, there are over 44,000 resources which can be downloaded for free.
The site is planning to expand further by adding significant amounts of content and launching dedicated resources destinations for teachers in their specialist areas: TES Primary, TES Special Needs and TES Secondary subjects.
TSL have also acquired i-board (www.i-board.co.uk) and made over 500 interactive whiteboard activities for KS1, Foundation, Primary and Special Needs available to schools and teachers for free.
The site is also planning to:
- Improve the search experience for teachers, organising over 18,000 existing primary resources and creating a further 1,000 Key Stage 2 digital whiteboard resources.
- Procure and host over 2,000 resources aimed at Special Needs.
- Add over 3,000 secondary teaching resources from englishteaching.co.uk to the existing resources on TES Connect.
- Add new Key Stages 3, 4 and A level, podcasts and videos from MrBartonMaths.com to the site and develop new mathematics resources.
- Collaborate with David Smith, creator of Brain Cells (brain-cells.co.uk) and The Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching (CIMT) to share content on TES Connect.
