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 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.”

the questions are not varied enough and they are the same, which means students can copy answers from their friends hence not showing the true reflection of students understanding.

Mathswatch is excellent for students own revision and is also a very useful tool for the classroom. We have used it for years and the students love it. The explanatory videos are really helpful and the self-marking interactive questions are a winner. All this at a very reasonable price.

Jun 2023
It has been a lifeline for reasons mentioned previously, with us using it most often for attendance reasons and revision. We use the exam papers provided, and it is a useful homework tool. It was also extremely helpful when the schools were closed due to Covid and meant that students got regular feedback without impacting significantly on teacher workload, meaning that teachers could focus on delivering quality live lessons.
Rebecca statham found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“Ready made learning and questions for absent students, ready made videos and questions for revision”
- Significantly reduces attainment gap“Students who are non attendees or long term sickness can access the videos from home and so do not get as far behind. Students working independently for revision can use the resources to consolidate learning”
- Moderately provides school data“Looking at engagement outside of school, comparing different DLG groups.”

Excellent approach to supporting learning; The tasks can be set as HW and as Exam; Flexibility; Excellent communication with the MW team; New features are introduced regularly; Student- friendly; Excellent resource for weekly topic discussion as well as for exam prep; My suggestions for changing certain features, or accepted answers are always being listened to and responded; Very effective resource for target setting;
Valeria Panyko found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“HW tasks- we can focus on the gaps only; target setting-based on the mock exam students get their targets referring to specific MW clip numbers”
- Moderately reduces attainment gap“Students can complete the assigned work in the library, in additional workshops and sometimes during the lessons. As most of our students have smart phones many of them are using MW on it. It is easily accessible and they don't have to pay for private tuition, the video clips are providing very clear explanation on how to approach each topic.”
- Moderately provides school data“Students who are using MW effectively, improve their overall grades; Sometimes exam tasks are being signed to the learners, so we have instant information about students' progress; HW task completion is shared with parents during the parents meeting; Independent learning hours are monitored on MW, this is being shared with the management.”
- Significantly improves attainment“Weekly HW is being set on MW based on the discussed topic. Learning hours are being extended; Students who can't attend the lessons due to health or other reasons, can follow the learning; Gives students a great amount of flexibility and opportunity for differentiation; Students who are regularly engaging with the online work outside their maths lessons, are achieving higher marks/grade in their exams.”

Aside from all the above points, MW is incredibly good value. Similar products exist but you'd pay at least twice the price. MW have always kept their prices low. They value loyalty and they make improvements regularly.
Matt found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“MW reduces homework marking time significantly. The wonde integration also means no time having to set up classes.”
- Significantly reduces attainment gap“All classes are set consistent homework tasks by the key stage lead, reducing inconsistency and providing equal opportunities for all. It is also the best form of revision guide which we as a school make freely available to all.”
- Significantly provides school data“It produces detailed homework data. Data on independent work is often some of the most indicative of how well students will do.”
- Significantly improves attainment“Our students tackle hundreds of exam style questions every year as a result of simply doing their homework. How can that not impact attainment.”

It is simple. It is affordable. It is kept up-to-date. It is a specialised package. It impacts results whilst reducing my workload.
Lindsey Watson found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“I can rapidly set homework tailored to the class. And if students have to miss a lesson, they know exactly what has been covered because the clips will be in the homework.”
- Moderately reduces attainment gap“Exam revision - I can monitor what less conscientious pupils are doing and message parents. These are the sometimes the students who cause the attainment gap.”
- Does not significantly provide school data“We could use the online GCSE exams to check current attainment.”
- Significantly improves attainment“Prior to lockdown, we saw improved GCSE grades since moving to online MathsWatch. Without MathsWatch we could not have kept so many students on track during lockdown. High ability students in 2021 significantly outperformed expectations which is down to their ability to use the clips to work at their own pace.”
