What does the endorsement mean?
Pearson Edexcel endorse specific resources and tours that support Edexcel and BTEC qualifications and meet their expectations of quality. Endorsed itineraries have been reviewed by the awarding body to confirm that it suitably enhances the teaching and learning process for the related qualification.
A Pearson subject representative will have also attended the associated tour to ensure that its content meets the requirements of the qualification it is aimed at and to confirm that it is suitable for the intended audience of the qualification.
The review confirms that the itinerary and the tour support the content of this qualification and that the locations covered in each visit and the key outcomes to be delivered as part of each visit enrich the overall learning experience of the course or part of the course it is aimed at.
A resource bearing the endorsement logo will have been checked for relevance, appropriateness, and accuracy in relation to the specification that it aims to support, and level of the target audience. Note that endorsed resources and tours will feature the endorsement logo.
How can tours help to improve attainment?
Curriculum alignment
Our tailor-made itineraries are designed to incorporate key study themes to support learning back in the classroom. Endorsed resources and tours focus on teaching and learning content, offering assessment guidance and support, including sample and practice questions, tasks or assignments.
Engaging guides
Anglia guides are experts in providing engaging educational experiences that take students on a journey through time, helping them to visualise the environment in a way which a textbook cannot. This can be beneficial for students, as it offers opportunities to explore the subject in a broader context, beyond the boundaries of the specification and assessments.
Experiential learning
Students learn more effectively when they can see and experience historical topics in real life. Our tours provide hands-on learning opportunities that can deepen their understanding of the subject matter.
Exam preparation
These trips can provide specific insights or experiences that are directly relevant to exam topics. For instance, visiting a key historical site firsthand can bring places, events, and concepts to life, giving students a unique frame of reference for exam questions.
