Since returning to the academy in September our students have already completed over 850 hours of Sparx homework. Sparx Homework is deliberately designed to help students really get to grips with and understand the concepts and skills they are learning by ensuring they cover the essential building blocks needed to make progress in maths. Sparx personalises each child’s homework, creating a weekly set of questions tailored to their level of understanding and learning pace. The questions are designed to be achievable whilst offering the stretch that learners need to make progress. Sparx’ research (sparx.co.uk/evidence) has shown that an average of 60 minutes a week of this type of personalised maths home learning leads to clear progress. Maths teachers will be supporting all students with the Sparx platform over the coming weeks and months to ensure that every student maximises their Mathematical potential.
