Whizz

“For children on the autism spectrum, Maths-Whizz is also helpful as its explanations are  consistent. This supports understanding. It means these students can access learning  they could not easily access before.”

“For parents during lockdown, Maths-Whizz has offered current  curriculum teaching for children to access independently. It has been one less thing for  them to worry about during the restrictions.”

“It keeps skills simmering and knowledge up-to-date across the board. It’s also a great  assessment tool as progress and gaps are easy to identify. This feedback helps teachers  understand which areas to focus on to develop further learning.”

“It has been a simple way to set work, and requires very little planning, marking and monitoring”

“‘We always make sure there’s consistency,  and that we make maths a big part of school  life. Maths-Whizz really helps, feeding into the  routine and practice.’”

“‘The teachers are really seeing the results  of using the Maths-Whizz reporting tools,  understanding and analysing each child’s maths  progress. They can really visualise each child’s  learning, and they share that with the children  one-to-one, letting them decide if they want to  compete with others.’”

“‘The children really enjoy it, too. They even use  the Tutor in their spare time. They often come  in at break and say “Can I spend some time on  Maths-Whizz?” Some children would love to  spend hours on it. Just today, one of the children  came over to me, excited about the fact that he  had worked hard daily to improve his Maths Age  and at last he had beaten our reigning champion.’”

“‘We didn’t use it for all children at first. The  teachers really liked it and the children were  catching up quickly. We were seeing great  results, so we thought, why not invest and use it  across the whole school?’”

“‘Our children really like to know how they’re  doing. With the new curriculum it’s not so visible  to the children how they’re progressing through  levels. Maths-Whizz helps them to see their  progression.’”

“‘It’s key that our teachers use the Maths-Whizz  reports, and that each child has some individual  time with their teacher in the Maths-Whizz hour. Children see their efforts and progress visualised,  and teachers get great results by understanding  and analysing the reports.’”

“‘The Maths-Whizz Tutor, on the other hand —  now that has impact.’”

“‘We made a lot of changes to the way we teach  maths; Maths-Whizz was a fundamental part of  that. It helps to support us with the analysis and  understanding of each child’s needs — as well as  the enjoyment.’”

“‘The Maths-Whizz Tutor is now the only maths  homework we set. It is tailored and personalised  and teaches each child at the level they need,  with all the support they need.’”

“‘Since starting with Maths-Whizz, our year-on-year  SATs results have got better and better; our  scores shot up! It’s incredible, really.’”

“The great thing about the virtual tutor is that the children find it such fun!”

“Maths-Whizz is great for our SEN students because it tailors lessons to their individual ability.”

“The children love it as it’s also great fun!”

“Overall, we are very happy with our investment in Maths-Whizz. Financially it is  worthwhile. Everyone has gaps in their learning and Maths-Whizz helps us identify and  proactively address those gaps to ensure skills are enhanced. We would definitely  recommend Maths-Whizz.”

“Maths-Whizz has been a success from the start.”

“Maths-Whizz is a great resource to use alongside class teaching.”

“We’ve found since implementing Maths-Whizz, that our pupils have become better  mathematicians because it enables them to practice what we teach in lessons. It’s tailored  to the needs of each child, and pitches work at the right level. It’s also visual and appealing,  providing structure balanced according to need.”

“Maths-Whizz is great at supporting blended learning”

“Since the introduction of Maths-Whizz, pupil engagement and progress in maths has increased”

“The beauty of Maths-Whizz is that it’s so specific to the needs of each child”

“Working with Whizz Education’s programme and services has benefited the school  and made significant improvements to the learning outcomes for our students in  maths. It’s kept children thinking about and progressing with maths despite all the  recent disruptions due to COVID. Maths-Whizz has certainly helped make maths  count and raised the profile of this key subject within our school.”
