Information for teachers
Our books are used by primary and secondary schools across the UK – as a resource for teachers and as guides for parents.
Packed with practical advice and up-to-date facts, the books can be read from cover to cover in one go, or referred to as needed. Designed with ‘time saving’ in mind, the sub-headings and summaries enable you to find the information you need immediately.
Need2Know guides are ideal for:
- An accurate ‘recap’ of a particular subject.
- Lesson planning - contents cover key topics.
- Resources for student teachers.
- PSHE lessons - from bullying to applying to university!
- Weflare & Support.
- Assembly topics.
- Teacher information.
- Primary teacher resources.
- Secondary teacher resources.
- Parent and carer resources.
The Need2Know books are a range of ‘essential guides’ and ‘parent guides’, but you will find that they have been cleverly written so they can be used by a wide ranging audience – from parents and young people, to teachers and professionals.
Current subjects covered by the Need2Know range include:
- Acne
