This is a superb resource and is perfect for the Key Stage 4 and 5 students at our Special Needs College. The students thoroughly engage with the content and the age-appropriate nature of the layout is very much appreciated.
Great resource to support our teaching of Entry Level Maths
Great resource, is age appropriate and really helpful for teaching the content at the right level. The combination of having the workbook and PowerPoint makes for quick, efficient planning - thank you!!
Clearly set out exercises, with helpful notes at the beginning of each little booklet. Helped me a lot as a new teacher :)
