What do others say about the programme?

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.

“They [The School Consultancy Tutoring Programme] understood that secondary school maths teachers are trained to deliver the KS3 National Curriculum. Yet, some children start in Year 7 with base line data as low as infant age children and so many pupils have other gaps in key primary maths skills which prevent them moving into KS3 learning. Even the best teachers and schools’ systems may need to rethink how they provide maths provision. 

I am delighted to say I commissioned the School Consultancy Tutoring Programme and I’ve watched a new service being formed.  Working closely with schools, they are now able to offer packages of targeted and specialist level support in secondary mainstream schools. The data speaks for itself, but the real power of the programme is hearing what pupils say and believe. I’ve watched pupils realise that they are making progress, and they are starting to believe that they can do maths. It has transformed the school’s offer of support to our pupils.”
