How well does it match the curriculum?

Well: It covers the curriculum as well as we expected

Could do with more on the composing side

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

Reasonably: Harmonies that are easy to teach

Always hard to find well-planned harmonies

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

Well: Pupils generally enjoy using it and tend to welcome doing so

Good range of songs

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited

To be fair that’s a hard one to do with singing

How well does it support planning?

Well: It’s fairly self-contained and can be used with minimal preparation

Easy to use

How well does it support home use / independent learning?

Reasonably: It could be used at home or independently, but pupils would need some extra support or resources

I’m It sure how engaging home use would be more

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

Well: It’s worth the money and effort to introduce – more so than many similar resources I’ve seen

Good value

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 7/11
