How Espresso Benefits You

Save teacher time with Espresso's fully resourced lessons

Fully resourced lessons, all in one place? It’s a teachers’ dream!
From maths and English to art and PE, you’ll find every resource you need to deliver engaging lessons from EYFS to KS2. With pre-made presentations and high-quality activities, you can easily save whole topics, building a bank of resources to use year on year.

Covering all learning outcomes across the National Curriculum, our ‘Curriculum browse’ feature helps you quickly locate the perfect resource to tick off each objective. 

Espresso-Website-Benefits&Features-Teacher Support@2x

Designed by teachers and learning experts, we’ve created ‘Educator Notes’ for every topic within Espresso. With clear lesson sections, curriculum objectives and timelines, you’ll find everything you need to confidently teach across subject areas. And, if you’re in need of some inspiration, see what other teachers are looking at in the ‘Trending searches’ section on your personal homepage. 

Take your lessons to the next level and go beyond worksheets with Espresso

Espresso goes further than worksheets. Think videos, sound clips, and poems! Learning about the seaside? Pop on audio of a harbour and let your pupils’ imaginations come to life! What can you hear? What might you see? What might you smell? 

Espresso-Website-Benefits&Features-Cross Curricular Links@2x

Setting work inside and outside the classroom has never been easier. With fun interactive activities, such as video quizzes that can be completed individually or as a whole class, every lesson is engaging (and ticks off those curriculum objectives too!). There’s no need to queue for the printer as pupils’ access everything right from their very one My DE homepage.

Here's what our customers have to say...

The Oxford School Panama

“Upgraded Espresso has a brilliant feature called Studio which lets us create boards to share with the children. We can pin different resources to the boards… and assign these to each child individually.” 

Catherine Garratt, Teacher
The Oxford School in Panama

Moss Hall primary school

“The search bar is easy to navigate and the filter is good too. Keywords can be typed into the search bar, and it sorts the results clearly. It’s actually very easy to use and this simplifies my planning.” 

Eno Chance, Reception Teacher
Moss Hall Infant School
