Wider World Second Edition is a new edition of Pearson’s most popular mid-secondary course. It
prepares teenagers for their life ahead by giving them the skills they need to enjoy their social lives,
pursue their studies and succeed in their career.
Highlights
• Authentic English – humourous situations, interviews with real people, and clips taken from BBC
programmes, show language used in real-life situations.
• Global topics – each unit explores the wide diversity of life and culture, exposing students to
topics from around the world, including global citizenship or sustainability goals.
• Future skills – Set for Life is a new development programme mapped to Pearson’s Personal and
Social Capabilities Framework, which helps learners develop the skills they need.
• New BBC videos – clips from BBC programmes remain at the core of the course, with new videos
reflecting important themes, such as culture, global citizenship and topics promoting diversity
and inclusion.
• Mixed ability classes and neurodivergent students – an expanded range of support materials
enable teachers to respond to the needs of all students.
• Extended reading and writing programme – extra focus on the gradual development of reading
and writing skills, providing greater opportunities to learn, practise and recycle the language and
use it in more authentic contexts.
