SPARX Maths

Engagement with SPARX Maths for revision has proven to increase performance between the November Mock and the March Mock. Students who have put their SPARX feedback sheets on the wall from the mocks and used the colour coding to guide their revision have had a significant boost in their confidence when answering questions independently in exam conditions. 

We strongly encourage SPARX as a vital tool for revision. It is tailored to the student’s needs and the more engagement they have with the software, the more it responds to what they need. This also allows teachers to gain valuable insights in to how to support students further as it gives a report on what skills need to be revised in lessons with teacher input.  

Please encourage your child to engage with weekly SPARX homework and also use this as a tool for revision.
