Not accessible for all abilities.

The students enjoy using it.

Reasonably: Mostly we can use it without an unreasonable amount of effort or additional resource requirement
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
Works well for home learning and cam be used on different devices.
