Endorsed by Cambridge. These are resources that have been written to be closely aligned to the syllabus they support and that have been through a detailed quality assurance process.

Recommended by Cambridge. These are resources that have been through a short quality assurance process in which their content has been reviewed against the part or parts of the syllabus they support and have been found to offer good quality material suitable for use with the Cambridge programme. This means that they form a useful source but cannot be used to deliver the programme on their own.

Suggested by teachers. These are resources that have not been through the Cambridge quality assurance process but have been found suitable for use with various parts of the syllabus by teachers.

Cambridge teacher training

Cambridge teacher training events include a range of face-to-face and online subject-specific training courses. Cambridge offers a range of courses enabling teachers to select training which best suits their own learning level and school timetable.

Cambridge Primary English as a Second Language curriculum
For those teachers using the Cambridge Primary English as a Second Language curriculum framework, externally certificated assessments can be provided by our sister organisation Cambridge ESOL. Cambridge ESOL also offers a Teaching Knowledge Test (TKT). It aims to increase teachers' confidence and enhance job prospects by focusing on the core teaching knowledge needed by teachers of primary or secondary learners.
