Supported frameworks include Common Core, NGSS and all 50 US state standards, the English National Curriculum from KS1 to KS4, NERDC in Nigeria, NaCCA Standards-Based Curriculum in Ghana, and Cambridge IGCSE. The platform carries 4,000+ multimedia learning resources and 160 STEM simulations.
The coverage problem
Most schools believe they teach their curriculum. Few can demonstrate it at objective level. The scheme of work says one thing, the lessons actually delivered say another, and the gap is usually discovered in the term before an examination or the week before an inspection.
Curriculum mapping closes that gap by making coverage a by-product of normal work rather than a separate audit. When lessons and assessments are tagged to objectives at the point of creation, coverage reporting is a query, not a project.
What it covers
Standards mapping
| Region | Frameworks |
|---|---|
| United States | Common Core State Standards, NGSS, all 50 state standards including Texas TEKS, Florida B.E.S.T. and California CCSS; CTE and career pathways |
| United Kingdom | English National Curriculum KS1–KS4, GCSE and A-Level pathways, T-Level aligned career modules |
| Nigeria | NERDC curriculum, KG through SS3 |
| Ghana | NaCCA Standards-Based Curriculum B7–SHS, 4Rs and Core Competencies |
| International | Cambridge IGCSE and Checkpoint |
Schemes of work
Build a scheme against the standard, sequence it across the year, and have every lesson and assessment inherit the objective tags automatically. Changes to the scheme propagate rather than requiring a manual re-tag.
Coverage and gap reporting
Coverage by class, subject, teacher and objective, showing what has been taught, what has been assessed, and where the two disagree. The most useful output is usually the third category: objectives that appear in lessons but never in assessment, which is where confident teaching quietly goes unverified.
Learning resources
4,000+ multimedia resources and 160 STEM simulations mapped to curriculum objectives, so a teacher searching for support material for a specific objective finds it rather than browsing a general library. Resources are available in English plus Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo in Nigeria, and Akan, Ga, Ewe and Dagbani in Ghana.
Curriculum across multiple frameworks
International schools, and schools preparing students for both national and international examinations, teach against more than one framework at once. Edves supports parallel mapping, so a single lesson can satisfy a NERDC objective and a Cambridge IGCSE learning outcome, with coverage reported separately against each.
How it connects
Curriculum is the spine the rest of the platform hangs from. Lesson design generates against a mapped objective. Assessment items carry the same tags, so mastery reports read against the standard. Parent reporting can then say what a child can do rather than only what they scored.
