Most Helpful Reviews

Spelling Shed

Shannon, Parent: It is good for me to play
Samantha Browster , Teaching Assistant : Excellent interface for children making spelling fun and challenging
Sophie Burns , Teacher: I like how much it engages the pupils. The competitive element has boosted the morale of many of my pupils with dyslexia and the repetitiveness has really helped them.

Britannica School

June Yeeles, School Librarian: Image quantity could be improved
Montserrat Palau, Librarian: It is an excellent resource, easy to use, connected anywhere, anytime. For our IB school, it is very complete in multilingual content, so it introduces students to the concept of multiple literacies, enriching their academic journey and multilingualism. In addition, it is very important to our school to promote academic honesty and integrity, so Britannica offers the citation of any information.
Matt, Primary Pastoral Lead / Year 1 teacher: a great resource in one place
