Sometimes appears rather wordy and repetitive

Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation

Lots of relevant material to save time.

Well: Pupils could be expected to use this at home or independently, with a minimum amount of support or additional resources

Easily adapted to home learning.

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

Good monthly price for access to all materials.
