Whizz

“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”

“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. They are  not limited by what’s taught in class and essentially become masters of their own learning.  If we consider the number of admin hours needed to produce this sort of individualised  work and send it home, ensuring every child’s needs are met, it would be incredible.  This system saves us time and ensures our students make better progress than with  just class teaching alone.”

“Because Maths-Whizz is so great for supporting children with different needs, the teaching staff really  appreciate this as an appropriate tool to enable them to achieve improved learning outcomes.”

“Maths-Whizz is brilliant because it differentiates learning.”

“I would absolutely recommend Whizz Education.”

“Most parents really appreciate the Math-Whizz tutor as many are shocked ‘how much math has changed since they learned’. We can’t always teach parents how to teach but Math-Whizz has meant they can see stages of learning. It also means there is no ‘guilt’ seeing their children online as they know they are learning.”

“The main benefit is the individual tutoring aspect of the solution which works at different levels. The children are all still doing math and are engaged but are all working at different stages and at a rate which suits them.”

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

“Overall, children make progress using Math-Whizz where they put in the time. Therefore, encouraging effort and resilience for the slightly more challenging tasks is key. Our children have achieved this with the support of all our staff and parents and as a result, we are proud of the progress our students have made in math, in one of the most challenging years ever experienced.”

“The team at Whizz Education has been able to support us in various ways during the past year, from arranging a zoom training call for teachers to emailing ideas to encourage engagement.”

“For children on the autism spectrum, Math-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, Math-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.”

“Math-Whizz also pitches learning at the right level. It tests understanding and gets children to practice math topics where they need extra support. We also have lots of motivated children at Brisley and they can really get ahead if they put in the time.”

“I have worked with Whizz Education and the virtual tutor Math-Whizz at a previous school, and I was keen to bring it to Brisley, as it performs well to get children to practice areas of the curriculum not currently being taught so different math topics remain fresh in their minds.”

“‘I’m not just limited to looking at a Year 5 objective for Probability. They had understood it, I could see that, I’ve got another activity which is at Year 6 level, so let’s move on to that.’”

“We’ve found since implementing Math-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.”

“Math-Whizz has certainly helped make maths count and raised the profile of this key subject within our school.”

“It’s kept children thinking about and progressing with math despite all the recent disruptions due to COVID.”

“Working with Whizz Education’s program and services has benefited the school and made significant improvements to the learning outcomes for our students in math.”

“Because Math-Whizz is so great for supporting children with different needs, the teaching staff really appreciate this as an appropriate tool to enable them to achieve improved learning outcomes.”

“Math-Whizz is brilliant because it differentiates learning.”

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