Really good and neat and tidy resources
How well does it match the curriculum?
Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected
Not a scheme we follow but dip in and out for activities
How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?
Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils
Varied activities
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so
Week presented and fun
How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?
Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited
Unknown
How well does it support planning?
Reasonably: Mostly we can use it without an unreasonable amount of effort or additional resource requirement
Unknown as we don’t use it for this
How well does it support home use / independent learning?
Reasonably: It could be used at home or independently, but pupils would need some extra support or resources
Unknown as not used for this
How would you rate it for value for money compared to similar resources?
Well: It’s worth the money and effort to introduce – more so than many similar resources I’ve seen
Very good
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 9/11
