e-Learning credits

We are a registered retailer and content provider for Curriculum online. You can use your e-learning credits to buy all of our programmes.

What is Curriculum Online?

Curriculum Online is central to the Government’s drive to transform teaching and learning in English state schools by improving access, via the COL web portal, to ICT and multimedia resources for all pupils.

What are e-Learning Credits?

To bring about the above aim the Government has set aside substantial funds for your school to spend on multimedia resources in the form of eLCs (eLearning Credits). The money is distributed from central Government via LEAs to individual schools, which decide locally how to spend it.

Every school has an appointed eLC budget-holder holder (eg your Head teacher, Head of Department, Bursar or ICT coordinator). All teachers are invited to recommend resources for purchase.
