All resources to fully meet the standards of the national curriculum. It is anticipated that the range of services may include: # the creation and maintenance of various in-class and catch-up resources in various formats # hosting of the resources for a specified time period on publicly available platform # support for teachers to use the service and service implementation, management and reporting # core concepts for teachers to understand the key knowledge and skills needed by pupils to build understanding, make connections and progress within a subject area # diagnostic tests to support teachers in identifying gaps in pupil learning, enabling them to identify next steps and assign a package of resources to help pupils resolve gaps in knowledge and address misconceptions The range of subjects to be covered by both in-class and catch-up resources is being determined and will be fully set out in the specification should the Contracting Authority subsequently publish a contract notice and invitation to tender.
