We’re always developing new support materials to help teachers deliver Cambridge programmes successfully in the classroom. Here are some of the latest resources on the School Support Hub, our secure online site for teachers at Cambridge schools. You can find them in the 'Teaching and learning' section of the relevant syllabus page.
If you have never had an account for the School Support Hub, speak to the School Support Coordinator at your school, and they will help set one up for you.

The Example Candidate Responses (ECR) booklets provide illustrative examples of candidate work at different levels of performance.
