Curriculum Lead for History

Used GCSEPod for 3-4 years

Mar 2021

We have been using GSCEPod for a few years and the engagement from the students has been phenomenal. They love it! It's such an easy way for students to revise and learn. This in turn then has a massive impact on confidence in lessons and in exams which, impacts on improved grades. GCSEPod is constantly adapting to meet the needs of students and teachers. I have been particularly impressed with the new exam paper feature - game changer!

Helen Wright found GCSEPod:
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Contributing to students achieving higher that targeted grades in mocks and when reading the content of exam responses, it is clear that it has come from the pods they have watched.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Oh my! I set pods as intro's to new topics etc and love when a student tells me a fact and says 'It said in the pod..'
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency and productivity
  • Does not significantly reduce teacher workload
  • Significantly improves teacher knowledge and skills
    I recommend to trainee teachers that they use and watch the pods to help further their knowledge. I also watch them if I need a reminder of a topic or if I have to teach a topic I haven't previously taught.
