Accessing OCR teaching resources
19 October 2023
Teach Cambridge: Everything for teachers in one place!
Our secure website Teach Cambridge has been designed to provide teachers with access to resources and support for their subject all in one place.
After successfully adding past papers, mark schemes and examiners' reports to Teach Cambridge in summer 2023, we're now transferring further teaching resources from the qualification pages on our public website. (We are also transferring assessment resources, such as pre-release materials, from Interchange to Teach Cambridge.)
This means, after the October half-term, you'll see that the ‘Planning and teaching’ sections of our qualification pages are designed for teachers considering our qualifications.
This aligns with the Cambridge Nationals (2022+) qualification pages which already contain examples of resources aimed at these teachers.
To support you, we've summarised where all our resources will be:
Teach Cambridge |
OCR public website |
- full planning, teaching and assessment materials for teachers delivery our qualifications (eg curriculum planners, exemplars, schemes of work, delivery guides, pre-release materials and set assignments)

- news stories and blogs
- student resources

- question papers (2–10 days after exams)
- mark schemes (on results day)
- examiner's reports (on results day)
- sample assessment materials (SAMs)

We're currently amending our specifications to make sure references and links to our teaching resources are updated.
For exams officers, our administration guidance will continue to be available on our public website and centre-specific data and reports will remain securely on Interchange to access and manage.
If you're an exams officer and still need to set up Teach Cambridge accounts for your teachers, see our step-by-step instructions.
