Well resourced for all abilities

 

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so

It’s engaging and exciting to use

 

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited

 

How well does it support planning?

Brilliantly: It has everything you could need and is straightforward to use with classes

Easy to adapt planning if needed

 

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

 

How would you rate it for value for money compared to similar resources?
