Average rating across all Education City reviews: 3.9/5
How well does it match the curriculum?
Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected
Good for practising at home
How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?
Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils
Use it for all learners to stretch or consolidate learning where needed
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Reasonably: We can’t use it too often or for too long
Would be good to see more of a variety of learning activities
How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?
Badly: There isn’t any / enough formative assessment or what there is, isn’t very useful
Not aware of any
How well does it support planning?
Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation
Links with my personal planning and school curriculum
How well does it support home use / independent learning?
Well: Pupils could be expected to use this at home or independently, with a minimum amount of support or additional resources
Use the resources for home learning
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
Offers value for money
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 8/11
