It is a superb resource and great for teachers to use.

 

How well does it match the curriculum?

Brilliantly: There is more content (eg support / extension activities) than we expected

 

How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?

Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils

The resources are easily adapted to different abilities.

 

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

Brilliantly: Pupils love using and are excited when they know they are going to do so

Our pupils love the units.

 

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Well: We could (or do) use it for monitoring individual pupil progress

 

How well does it support planning?

Brilliantly: It has everything you could need and is straightforward to use with classes

Planning is straight forward and lesson format easy to follow

 

How well does it support home use / independent learning?

Brilliantly: We’d have very few reservations about using this extensively to support home learning

 

How would you rate it for value for money compared to similar resources?

Brilliantly: It’s possibly the best value for money of any similar resources I’ve seen

 

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 11/11
