Most Helpful Reviews

Mathletics

Amanda, Specialist Support Tutor: This has been introduced across the whole SEND department, across KS3 and KS4, of my school and has provided quality intervention opportunities for students to build knowledge and close gaps.
Louise, Deputy Head: I have used Mathletics for years. I have tried doodle for a year but returned to Mathletics because I enjoyed the setting of assignements etc.
Pat O'Shea, Maths Coordinator: Very good programme but need more CPD to get more buy-in from a broader range of teachers in our school to sustain the successes this year. There are teacgers who use it plenty and then some who don't use it either little or not at all.

Kitty Duthie, Primary Teacher: I would recommend it as the online resources, including the CLIC, SAFE and Learn Its are very helpful. I like that data can be easily collected. Concepts are broken down well and the PowerPoints to go alongside these are helpful. I like that it is easy to see what concept to move onto next.
Carol Anderson, Acting Principal Teacher: Big Maths is a resource that can help deliver numeracy and maths. It should be used alongside supporting resources and activities but provides the progression steps that provide a clear pathway for learning and teaching.
Alan Thomas-Williams, Teacher (Junior Dept Maths Coordinator): I feel it’s invaluable in terms of formative assessment. It gives the school a strategic and developing framework of methods that graduate with comprehension from one to the next. It allows for both individual and group tracking and thus planning. It keeps skills that were previously covered once a year in the minds of pupils on a weekly basis. It helps engagement. It has improved results. The team at Big Maths are incredibly helpful and offer guidance whenever I’ve needed it.

Teachers are required to complete a spreadsheet with teacher and student names and year groups, we take care of setting up the account. An administrative school password is generated along with individual passwords for teachers and students. Teachers and students can then simply sign in and get started. As Mathletics is an online resource, a computer suite or bank of tablets/learnpads and interactive whiteboard is required. We provide every school with a free live demonstration of Mathletics and can also discuss any objectives teachers may have. We also provide a number of online videos and webinar sessions for teachers to access.

We recommend that teachers have a short, live demonstration of Mathletics to introduce them to the main elements of the program and also suggest how best to use Mathletics to suit their needs. This forms part of the trial process and provides a great way for teachers to communicate their objectives and let us show them how Mathletics can support them.
