We don’t spend our time creating volumes of reading material or videos for our own pleasure. Our focus is on creating learning activities that help young people thrive when they work on their own.
When young people thrive, and feel that it is worth investing time, they will work hard. When this happens technology can do the rest by recording and analysing activity and feeding this back into the teaching system.
"As a Head of Department, I can ask my staff to set meaningful homework on a regular basis that gives us a clear indicator of student progress and engagement, without overburdening my team. It also provided me with an overview of all our A level economists, even the ones I don’t teach. It has now become an integral part of our tracking.
It also helps reinforce and enhance the importance of the learning attributes we know are
a prerequisite to exam success. Not just independent learning, but responding to feedback, reflecting on mistakes and identifying gaps in their own knowledge and understanding, and giving them the means to address and remedy these."
