As a result, Prim-Ed Publishing has gained an esteemed reputation among teachers and practitioners in the education sector. 

For the teacher our resources offer; reference guidance, how you might introduce the topic to the class, development and deepened learning of topic, class differentiation and how you might teach children at different stages of learning, assessments to ensure progression, a pupil learning log, so they are aware of their own development/training. These core products are marketed through a nationwide sales team and a network of retailers.
