Head of Year and teacher of Geography and German

Used SAM Learning occasionally for 5 years+

Mar 2024

I have already recommended SamLearning to fellow colleagues because it breaks the routine of teacher talk lessons and provide more independent study for students with an immediate reward for their successes in the form of a score after every tasks and the opportunity to redo tasks as well as certificates for engagement with SamLearning.

Reply from SAM Learning:Thank you for the feedback Clive! We are delighted to hear of the positive impact SAM Learning is having in Alec Hunter Academy.
Clive Moreno found SAM Learning:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    Tasks on SamLearning cover the specifications and content for KS3 and KS4. Teacher do not have to create the tasks.
  • Significantly reduces attainment gap
    It is noticeable that regular use of SamLearning improves attainment by at least one GCSE grade for low ability students.
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Students in GCSE subjects tend to focus on longer answer questions and fail to revise short answer questions which can count up to 50% of an exam paper. With SamLearning that gap is closed with regular revision of short answer questions.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Understanding of key processes, key concepts and definitions.
