Subjects
Explore resources for different areas of learning.
Skills
Find material that supports particular skills or development.
Projects
Bring several resources together around a larger topic.
Interests
Follow what motivates the learner.
Current Priorities
Choose material that supports what the family is working on now.
Future Goals
Use resources to help prepare for the learner’s next stage.
EdiWay’s Home Education capability includes a dedicated educational resource library and a resource-sharing foundation.
Learning Activities
Material designed to support independent or family-led learning.
Reference Material
Useful information connected to an area of study.
Practice Resources
Material that can help reinforce learning.
Project Support
Resources that can contribute to longer activities.
External Learning Links
Useful third-party material that can be kept easier to find.
Reusable Resources
Return to useful material when it becomes relevant again.
The resource supports the learning. It does not dictate how the family must teach.
The School Chooses
The school determines which suitable resource is made available more widely.
Private Stays Private
Internal teaching resources remain restricted unless deliberately shared.
Learner Data Stays Private
Using a public school resource does not expose information about the school’s learners.
School Systems Stay Private
A public resource does not provide access to the school’s internal EdiWay environment.
The Learner Remains Home Educated
Accessing a resource does not enrol the learner at the publishing school.
- Teaching the learner
- Registering their attendance
- Assessing their progress
- Providing ongoing tutoring
- Accepting responsibility for their home education
- Opening its internal learner systems
- Creating a school place
- Creating an admissions relationship
The parent or carer remains responsible for the home-education pathway. This lets useful education resources travel further without confusing who is responsible for the learner.
Topic
What is the learner exploring?
Subject
Which area of learning does it support?
Resource Type
What kind of material would be useful?
Source
Is it from EdiWay, a participating school or an external source?
Relevance
Does it fit the learner’s current plan?
The aim is not to create the biggest possible resource pile. It is to help families find material they can actually use.
- Educational websites
- Videos
- Digital libraries
- Museums
- Galleries
- Public bodies
- Courses
- Community organisations
- Reference material
- Learning applications
- Other online resources
EdiWay can support external resource links so that useful material can remain connected to the learner’s wider learning plan.
Families remain responsible for checking the suitability, accuracy, and terms of third-party resources.
Choose
Find something useful.
Plan
Connect it to an activity, project or priority.
Learn
Use the resource in the way that suits the learner.
Capture
Add relevant work, photographs, notes or other evidence.
Reflect
Record what happened.
Review
Decide whether to continue, adapt or move on.
The resource becomes part of a learner journey rather than another forgotten link.
Weekly Learning
Choose material for current priorities.
Subject Learning
Group useful resources around an area such as maths, literacy or science.
Projects
Bring different types of resources into one longer investigation.
Learner Interests
Support deeper exploration of a topic the learner has chosen.
Practice
Use material repeatedly where additional practice is helpful.
Future Preparation
Select resources connected to qualifications, college or another next step.
- Written work
- Photographs
- Projects
- Presentations
- Practical activity
- Learner reflections
- Parent observations
- Completed tasks
- Creative work
- Tutor feedback
The evidence portfolio can help families understand how resources contributed to the learner’s actual experience.
Reading Level
Is the wording accessible?
Visual Presentation
Does the learner benefit from diagrams, imagery or reduced visual clutter?
Instructions
Are tasks understandable?
Length
Can the activity be broken into smaller stages?
Sensory Load
Is the presentation appropriate for the learner?
Independence
Can the learner use it alone or will support be needed?
Interest
Does it connect with something meaningful to the learner?
EdiWay can help families organise resources around the individual learner rather than assuming one format works for everyone.
- Shorter activities
- Visual instructions
- Alternative formats
- Practical learning
- Reduced writing demands
- Repetition
- More processing time
- Sensory-friendly presentation
- Interest-led examples
- Communication support
Relevant learner-support context can help families think more carefully about what material may be useful.
A resource recommendation or family choice does not diagnose SEND or establish a particular educational need.
Extend Useful Content
Allow appropriate resources to support more learners.
Support Community Learning
Contribute material that may help families outside ordinary enrolment.
Preserve School Control
Keep the school responsible for deciding what is published.
Keep Private Content Restricted
Continue using separate internal resources for enrolled learners and staff.
Separate Resource Sharing From Learner Access
Publishing learning material does not create access to school records.
Schools remain responsible for checking that they have the right to publish the material and that it is suitable for the intended audience.
Private School Resource
Available only within the appropriate school context.
Department or Staff Resource
Shared with an authorised internal group.
Learner Resource
Available to selected learners or classes.
Wider Shared Resource
Made available across an appropriate broader platform audience.
Public Learner Resource
Deliberately published for suitable wider learner access where supported.
Access to one resource does not create access to another.
- Accurate
- Current
- Age appropriate
- Accessible
- Suitable for the learner
- Relevant to the intended learning
- Safe to use
- Properly licensed or owned
- Appropriate to share publicly
The presence of a resource in EdiWay does not automatically mean it has been independently endorsed for every learner or education pathway.
Organise Ideas
Structure possible learning activities.
Suggest Search Directions
Help identify topics or types of resources to explore.
Adapt a Draft Activity
Prepare a working version that better fits the learner.
Summarise Material
Create a draft summary from permitted source information.
Prepare Questions
Suggest areas the learner could investigate further.
AI-generated material remains subject to human review. EdiWay AI does not determine that a resource is suitable for a learner, diagnose learning needs, or replace the parent’s responsibility for the home-education approach.
1. Start With the Learner
What are they learning or exploring?
2. Search Resources
Find appropriate EdiWay, school-shared or external material.
3. Check Suitability
Review source, level, format and relevance.
4. Add to the Plan
Connect useful material to the learner’s current activity.
5. Learn
Use it at home, online or as part of a wider experience.
6. Capture Evidence
Record what the learner did.
7. Reflect
Consider what was understood, enjoyed or difficult.
8. Choose What Comes Next
Continue, adapt or explore something new.

Resource choices remain human-led.
Where enabled, EdiWay AI may help prepare working drafts or learning ideas.
The parent, teacher or authorised user remains responsible for reviewing the material before use.
