Oak National Academy has named new curriculum partners who successfully bid for a slice of 拢7 million to help create free lesson materials for eight more subjects.

The government quango鈥檚 14 new partners will create resources covering art and design, citizenship, computing, design and technology, modern foreign languages, PE, religious education and RSHE.

Contracts have also been awarded for primary music and secondary geography, after  no supplier previously met its quality standards for these phases in its first procurement round.

Three of these were won by schools, with Ormiston Academies Trust selected for secondary RE and The Cam Academy Trust picked to develop MFL resources.

Cathedral Schools Trust partnered with Bristol Beacon, a music charity, to deliver primary music. 

Most of the other lots went to an array of subject associations (See full list below).

said its new partners will help create 6,000 resources, with teachers and subject experts from across the sector set to provide 鈥渋ndependent feedback鈥.

Curriculum sequences and the first units in these subjects will be available via Oak from the autumn term of 2024, rolling out across the year, the quango said. 

The full curriculum packages will be released by autumn 2025. 

Winners of the first 拢8.2 million round, covering six subjects, were announced in March last year. 

The quango said about half of these resources are already published and will continue to be released throughout this school year.

Matt Hood, chief executive of Oak National Academy, said they are “drawing on every part of the education sector in this collaboration, meaning teachers will have access to some of the best curriculum thinking and resource design available”.
