Q-files has been a great resource for our schools, particularly for students in Key Stage 2. The depth and detail of the content are very appropriate for our learners, allowing them to develop their independent reading and research skills.

I’m very impressed with the range and depth of entries available on Q-files for younger learners and I think its excellent usability will serve parents looking to homeschool their children well. The site is reliable, readable and reusable across much of the KS2 and KS3 curriculum, which is no mean feat – hats off to Q-files!
