Learning Situations

Every unit starts with a Big Question and a practical Learning Situation, guiding students step-by-step toward meaningful, real-world outcomes and true competency development.

A Wellbeing at the heart

Wellbeing Journal and One Little Thing activities foster identity, emotion regulation, citizenship, and a growth mindset.

A Inclusive by design

Visual-first materials and flexible formats support neurodiverse and SEN learners; no ability grouping—students choose their challenge.

A Modern methodology

Grammar and phonics are taught through a constructivist, visual approach, with engaging videos and creative tasks that make learning accessible and memorable.

A Measurable progress

All learning is mapped to the Global Scale of English (GSE), providing clear, trackable outcomes for schools, teachers, learners, and families.

A Flexible delivery

Designed for 5–10* hours per week, Small Big Things offers a balanced print + digital ecosystem for face-to-face, blended, or online teaching.

*(10 hours if using all components and extra resources).
