Well we have finally got our children back on success maker. Most of you will be familiar with this application, but I feel it's worth a mention. For those who haven't used it, it is used for pupils that are having problems with english, reading, spelling and math. It is tailored to the individual needs of each child using information from NFER test and Salford reading tests. Pupils use the programme daily in addition to lessons. Each session is given a score % out of 100. Each week TA's use the report function to monitor progress, identify weaknesses which can then be reset at a lower level.
I used this with year 6 last year and did notice improvement in all areas, the pupils seem to enjoy using it and are always keen to participate.
The system can also be used by so called gifted and talented pupils as an extension programme to reinforce prior knowledge and aid new learning.
