Up Learn

Bertram Hopkins: Great way to revise and test knowledge
Alex McDonald, Head of Economics: I am always looking for tools to aid pupils with increasing their attainment / ability in Economics. Actually the pupils that are currently finding it most useful are those pupils who are Year 13 and have already learnt quite a significant amount of content. I was expecting them to be pessamistic but they love the accessibility and straight-forward nature of the content. I have to say I am very impressed with Up Learn's immediate impact.
J, Deputy HoS: Good service. Easy to implement.
