Sumdog Maths

Lucy, Year 6 Teacher / Maths Leader: My class love going on it, the competitions and the range of games.
Jo, Deputy Headteacher: Easy to use, matches well to maths curriculum, pupil high interest levels, parental engagement

LiteracyPlanet

Charlotte Howell, Deputy Head of Senior English: I just think it is such a useful tool that benefits both pupils and teachers. Why wouldn't anyone want that?
Corrin, Teacher: I think I have explained. It’s time consuming, and doesn’t benefit our less able students. Our more able students might benefit but if they do it only widens a gap. That’s bad in education.
Charmain Hull, Second in English (KS3): 10 would have been given if it had the function of printing of data reports easily, and being able to share data with parents mor efficently. However, this is a superb programme that enable stsudents to develop their literacy skills and can be used in order to differentiate according to the their ability and what they need to improve on. I also love the fact that they can be set missions again and again and this can show how far they have improved on that mission.
