How well does it match the curriculum?
Brilliantly: There is more content (eg support / extension activities) than we expected
Love the progression maps and leader docs
How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?
Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils
Suitable for supporting pupils with additional needs
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so
Our pupils love the lessons
How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?
Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited
We haven’t got to testing this fully yet
How well does it support planning?
Brilliantly: It has everything you could need and is straightforward to use with classes
My staff feel confident
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
Peace of mind that we’re covering curriculum
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 11/11
