Teachers collaborate to create online Oak National Academy

The Oak National Academy is launching today, 20 April, and will provide 180 online video lessons each week, across a broad range of subjects from maths to art to languages, for every year group from Reception through to Year 10.

It is a brand-new enterprise created by 40 teachers from some of the leading schools across England, backed by government grant funding. 

Education Secretary Gavin Williamson said: This is a totally new initiative, led by 40 brilliant teachers who have assembled video lessons and resources for any teacher in the country to make use of if they wish to do so. 180 video lessons will be provided each week, across a broad range of subjects, for every year group from Reception through to Year 10.

"I recognise all the challenges that families will be facing at the moment and we are determined to support parents who are helping their children learn from home. I think we all know how difficult that can be."
