Mohammed Shahid Ahmed found MathsWatch:

• Reduces teacher workload“As a mathematics department, we have found Mathswatch to be an invaluable resource. One of its greatest strengths is that it provides a comprehensive Scheme of Work (SOW), eliminating the need for Heads of Department to create one from scratch. Teachers can easily follow the SOW by using the clip numbers and accompanying videos to deliver the content required for GCSE Mathematics and beyond. The platform's automated marking system for homework, interactive questions, and GCSE exam papers is extremely effective. In particular, the detailed exam reports help identify students' strengths and weaknesses, enabling targeted intervention and support. Personally, I have benefited greatly from these features, as they have significantly reduced my workload without compromising the quality of teaching and learning.”
• Improves attainment“The 1 Minute Maths feature is a powerful tool for reinforcing and retaining prior knowledge. When used alongside the interactive questions, it enables students to improve their attainment independently. Furthermore, if a student misses a lesson, they can easily catch up by watching the relevant video tutorial. Students can also use the GCSE exam reports to identify areas for improvement, revisit the associated videos, and complete the interactive questions, thereby strengthening their understanding and improving attainment.”
• Provides school data“At our school, we set weekly homework tasks and end-of-term examinations through Mathswatch. The resulting data plays a crucial role in report writing, monitoring student progress, identifying candidates for the UK Mathematics Trust (UKMT) challenges, selecting students for intervention and Gifted & Talented programmes.”
• Reduces attainment gap“Students who struggle with mathematics can revisit videos on topics they find difficult, while more able students can access higher-grade content to extend their learning. The structured progression of clips by grade ensures that all students, regardless of ability, can use the videos and interactive questions to close attainment gaps and make sustained progress.”
