Most Helpful Reviews

Whizz Education

Olivia Power, Primary Teacher: It is a fun interactive way for the children to engage. The children love it.
Hannah, Lead Tutor: The AI is incredible. Each lesson is different, and it is engaging for students. I frequently used Maths-Whizz to explain a concept when a child wasn’t understanding. It is incredibly visual and supports students in making progress. If you have not tried it already, make sure you do, as you truly are missing out on an incredible resource at your fingertips. It can be your assistant that just bubbles along in the background.
Catriona, Teacher: It is a excellent programme for schools to use and it helps build children's skills, confidence and enthusiasm in maths

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.
