Developing vocabulary

Vocabulary development is a cornerstone of all English teaching and we know that closing the word gap is essential to help students to achieve their potential, both in school and in life.

Our targeted vocabulary resources will help you to build students' confidence with new words, and crucially develop their ability to use new words in their own speech and writing. 

Search the resources below for inspiration, or see our Word gap resources, written in partnership with Oxford University Press, our Word gap posters for classroom displays or try our flexible Word gap templates.
