How well does it match the curriculum?
Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected
Recently started and videos help a lot
How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?
Reasonably: Not fully for my lowest but practical makes it easier
Good range
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so
Pupils like videos etc
How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?
Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited
Not fully explored
How well does it support planning?
Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation
So easy
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
Seems cost effective
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 11/11
