An excellent resource for Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4. Students are familiar with this resource and use it within their lessons. Each student has the school log-on details and their own unique logon which records their progress.

The 'Booster Packs' contain a wealth of revision topics, ordered by topic, whist the four headings 'Number', 'Shape', 'Algebra' and 'Data' contain a vast array of 'lessons' which step students through the learning and 'online homeworks' which allow students to practice their skills.

Select ‘Kenny’s Pouch’ then ‘Assessment’ then ‘Key Stage 4’ in here there are lots of useful resources especially the ‘Make the Grade’ tests and the ‘Grade descriptors’. These are a useful place to start your GCSE revision – look through the grade descriptors and identify areas to revise. The ‘make the grade’ tests also have worked answers.

Lots of good interactive resources in this area. Can ‘revise’ then complete an ‘activity’ before sitting a test.
