Developing resources for Hwb

A Hwb resource is a practical, usable educational tool that helps a learner or practitioner achieve a clear learning, teaching or professional learning outcome.

A Hwb resource must:

• have a clear educational purpose that supports learning, teaching, curriculum design, learner support or professional learning

• be a usable learning or teaching tool such as an interactive activity, video, digital tool, or downloadable material

• meet Hwb publishing criteria including being free, non-commercial, requiring no additional logins, and complying with Welsh language standards and accessibility requirements

• be accurate, relevant, high-quality, user-focused and accessible

A Hwb resource is not:

• guidance, policy or general informational content such as news articles or consultations, without a direct practical application

• content without a defined user action or applied use

• commercial or restricted-access materials requiring login or payment

• content that fails accessibility or Welsh language compliance

If your content is not suitable as a Hwb resource, it may be better placed elsewhere, such as on GOV.WALES for policy or guidance content, as a blog or news article, or on another Welsh Government service page. If you are unsure where content should be published, contact the Education Content mailbox for advice: EducationContent@gov.wales.
