Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils
Solid knowledge
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so
Pupils engage well and love learning
How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?
Well: We could (or do) use it for monitoring individual pupil progress
Great for tracking pupil progress
How well does it support planning?
Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation
Good to have long term overview
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
This could be improved
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
Price is competitive
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 8/11
