“An absolute no-brainer for an education package. One sign in for staff, another for students. Works well on tablets, PCs, laptops and projected on the smart board or Clevertouch.
The Digital bundle is an amazing resource which is a one-off purchase price. In and out of lockdown it is a blessing with blended & flipped learning.
The teacher resources are great for revision, for teaching and fantastic exam practice and easy homework solutions.
The links to external websites and videos are fantastic, as too are the PowerPoint and PDF worksheet versions of the questions and activities in the student book.
We also have a class set of the revision guides which give the ‘must knows’ in a nice tidy, easy to access format.”
Teacher, Royal Russell School, Croydon.
“By far the best purchase I’ve made. We bought the digital pack back in 2016 and it has truly been an asset. Students find the interactive access useful and informative which has been a lifeline for teaching, particularly in 2020. In the teacher login I have found the digital resources highly beneficial for both worksheets, exam questions and the ready made PowerPoint slideshows have helped support and reduce planning.
Being able to support students both at home and at school has to be the biggest benefit, as all students have the same opportunity regardless of home situation. I honestly couldn’t and wouldn’t be without it.”
