How well does it match the curriculum?
Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected
How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?
Reasonably: Of course we have some pupils who prefer not to sing
How well does it engage and motivate pupils?
Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so
Most content is fun and engaging
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 don’t tend to formally assess this lesson
How well does it support planning?
Brilliantly: It has everything you could need and is straightforward to use with classes
Very easy to pick off the shelf
How well does it support home use / independent learning?
Badly: It’s not really suitable for home use or independent learning
We don’t set this for home learning
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
Oak Academy have some good free lessons. May use these in future
Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 6/11
