Average rating across all White Rose reviews: 4.3/5

How well does it match the curriculum?

Brilliantly: There is more content (eg support / extension activities) than we expected

 

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

Reasonably: Extension for very most able. Support to help children NBC in y6 working at ks1 level.

Extra materials at both ends would be good.

 

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

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

Resources are fun.

 

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Well: We could (or do) use it for monitoring individual pupil progress

End of unit tests are good.

 

How well does it support planning?

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

 

How well does it support home use / independent learning?

Brilliantly: We’d have very few reservations about using this extensively to support home learning

Videos are great.

 

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

Brilliantly: It’s possibly the best value for money of any similar resources I’ve seen

So cheap!

 

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 7/11
