When I joined the maths intervention, I was a bit apprehensive as I needed certain method that would help my students as well as me. The worksheets are quite viable and students mostly approach them with a positive outlook. The best part of this maths programme are the videos. They are really helpful. When I watch them with my students, they clear my doubts and I feel ready to deliver lessons with a clear and positive mindset. I really enjoyed rounding up, place value data handling with my students. The phrase “five or above give it a shove” stays with my students and they can do their rounding up without much confusion. The assessment sheets help me in placing them exactly where they are, and to my surprise some of my students have made it back to their normal maths lessons confidently. I believe the whole programme is quite viable and lucrative for our students and helps them in mastering their skills.
We work with schools and colleges to support students who have fallen behind with the maths National Curriculum expectations and, as a result, have gaps in their primary maths which prevent them moving forwards in their learning. Using our own experience, expertise and materials, we assess students, create a baseline assessment and a ‘Roadmap’ of lessons needed to fill their gaps in understanding.
We then use our own pre-recorded videos and different levels of worksheet challenge to support students and monitor their progress to build a stronger foundation to get them back on track.
Our results prove how successful our programme is, not only closing students’ gaps, but also raising confidence and self-esteem in maths and even having a positive effect of student attendance.
