What is MathsWatch?
MathsWatch is a complete solution that supports teachers' delivery of the Maths curriculum while reducing their workload.
We provide teachers and their students with high-quality videos covering every Maths topic, combined with banks of interactive questions that can be used for classwork/homework/assessment/independent learning. Our innovative marking algorithms have revolutionised the way teachers can deliver quality Maths lessons to their students as we are the only platform worldwide able to give marks for working out and not merely for final answers. This revolutionary feature makes the MathsWatch experience much more realistic and beneficial to students than most traditional quiz setting platforms.
Furthermore, our popular modelled exam series offer the best possible preparation to students before their final GCSE exams. They can see their grade progression as they advance and clearly identify their strengths and areas of development. A truly immersive experience.
All this is offered to schools by MathsWatch at one of the most competitive price points currently on the market.

Mathswatch is a great platform, overall very happy with it, and would have easily given it a higher score, the only thing is that for some topics, it would be nice if there were more questions, and sometimes somewhat harder questions to stretch specific students.

MathsWatch is very user friendly for teachers, students and parents. It has an enormous amount of resources and is ideal for supporting the independent learning of our students. The videos are used to help with harder questions, to revise and to catch up with missed content. As a teacher I manage to "tick a box" on so many levels using MathsWatch.
M. Vandorpe found MathsWatch:

Mathswatch is quick and easy to set tasks for; I like that I can set tasks with many topics in with as many or as few questions as I wish, the video tutorials are helpful and comprehensive and the tasks are split well into Standard and Difficult questions.

Mathswatch saves us a huge amount of time with the setting of homework, and with assessments. Equally important though, the team at Mathswatch are very quick to respond to issues. For example, when a student has taken an unconventional approach to a tricky question, which is valid, but unrecognised by the marking algorithm. In this situation, I have flagged the student's work, and the team at Mathswatch have quickly adjusted the mark scheme to allow the student's method. Their response time is similarly quick for any technical issues, on the rare occasion when these have cropped up. A brilliant team!
G Dove found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“We set homework centrally on a weekly basis, and as a HOD, I can be confident that all students are given homework regularly. All Maths homework for years 7 to 11 is automatically marked, including shadow papers for students in the exam year groups. We are also easily able to give SEN students a bespoke homework that meets their needs, both in terms of length and difficulty. During high pressure times, we use the test facility to set assessments for students, thereby carrying out effective assessment, with only a minimal impact on staff workload. Features that we particularly like are: 1) the ability to set parallel questions in homeworks, reducing the opportunity for students to copy from a friend. 2) the ability to randomise the question order, which is extremely useful in assessments.”
- Moderately reduces attainment gap“Conscientious students use the homework to revise prior learning, and revise for future assessments. Following mocks, students are given a QLA that links to the videos and tasks on Mathswatch.”
- Significantly provides school data“Parents are given regular updates on their child's grades from homework. Data from tests is uploaded to our school reporting system.”
- Significantly improves attainment“Students who complete the follow up work from their mocks are able to make significant progress before their second mock. For students who need just a very quick reminder of a topic, they have the option to use the "one minute maths" videos, instead of the full length ones.”
