Average rating across all Century Tech reviews: 3.8/5

How well does it match the curriculum?

Brilliantly: There is more content (eg support / extension activities) than we expected

Targeted and responsive. Aligned to national curriculum. Can be used at home or in the classroom. Artificial intelligence makes it so flexible. Parents able to interact.

 

How well does it support adaptation for different groups of pupils?

Brilliantly: There is a wide enough range of resources to provide a good range of options for all pupils

It would be really useful for Century to extend their product to support KS1. We currently use a different provider for this and it isn't as effective.

 

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

Brilliantly: Pupils love using and are excited when they know they are going to do so

The children love the product. They are able to see their progress and find the modern interface really motivating.

 

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Brilliantly: We could (or do) use it for monitoring pupils or classes, for gap analysis or to inform intervention strategies

It is completely assessment driven so perfectly works within our whole school assessment framework.

 

How well does it support planning?

Brilliantly: It has everything you could need and is straightforward to use with classes

Clearly aligns with NC programmes of study for maths, reading, science and spag. Gives children rehearsal, consolidation and extension.

 

 

How would you rate it for value for money compared to similar resources?

 

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? /11
