As part of our commitment to ensuring a range of high quality resources are available to support the new GCSE and A Level qualifications at first teaching, we are pleased to be working with several different publishers so that they can provide textbooks and digital resources.
These publishing partners are generally selected through an open tendering process and OCR neither pays nor receives any royalties for these publications. Other publishers may also produce alternative textbooks and resource packages, and OCR will consider endorsement of resources submitted by any publisher. See individual subject pages for details of textbooks and endorsed resources.
We are working with the following publishers:
