Review rating:

Average rating across all Sing Up reviews: 3.8/5

How well does it match the curriculum?

Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected

Topics match ok. But only use when working towards a performance

 

How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?

Well: A large majority of resources are suitably differentiated for pupils

Used with choirs, so not all SEN accounted for.

 

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

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

Catchy, good tunes. Meaningful words

 

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

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

Not assessed with it

 

How well does it support planning?

Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation

All good.

 

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

Not used this way.

 

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

 

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 9/11
