Cambridge Primary Resource List, English: Stage 1
There are three categories of resources listed in this PDF: resources that are endorsed by Cambridge, recommended by
Cambridge or suggested by teachers. A description of each of these categories is provided below. Please note that where
Cambridge has reviewed a series of books or resources that contain a very large number of items published within a single
scheme, teachers should use their own judgement to evaluate the cultural sensitivity of the material according to their own
particular requirements.

Publications endorsed by Cambridge

These are resources that have been written to be closely aligned to the syllabus they support, and have been through a
detailed quality assurance process. As new resources are published we will review these against the curriculum frameworks
and publish their details in the relevant section below.

Publications 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 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. As new resources are published we will review these against the curriculum frameworks and publish their details in the
relevant section below.

Publications 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. Further guidance on resources is available to registered centres on the
Cambridge Primary website https://cambridgeprimary.cie.org.uk
