Live student reports for parents and teachers have been key to the success of Maths-Whizz Tutoring.
Since we launched Maths-Whizz Tutoring four years ago, we’ve been providing ‘live updates’ to parents and teachers on the progress of their students’ Maths-Ability.
It’s something of a no-brainer: when Parents and Teachers are able to access the same student progress information, it strengthens communication between the school and home. This produces purposeful and positive understanding of every child’s current ability – strengths and weaknesses.
This Friday, BECTA will recognise the benefits of live reporting in a conference for Primary School Head Teachers and Leaders: Engaging parents through online reporting – London 26 February 2010.
Educating schools on the importance of a transparent relationship between Students, teachers and the home environment is at the core of Maths-Whizz beliefs and is applied through our Best Practice Methods.
With Head teachers now taking the step towards embracing these methods across the country, we can expect only a positive step toward all students reaching there full potential through ICT and Maths-Whizz.

Quick plug to read up on ‘raising standard in maths with online tutoring‘ in this month’s edition of PIR Education magazine.
(Raising standards in maths - PIR Education)
Some great coverage of our efforts to boost maths standards in schools and home:
Maths-Whizz, which first appeared at BETT in 2006, returns this year with the latest generation of its animated maths teaching tools. The company’s method is to make services that work simply to raise standards in maths, regardless of the classroom environment, the student’s year group or the prevailing new vs. old maths agenda. For this, Maths-Whizz won a BETT award in 2006 and has since been adopted in domestic and schools markets as diverse as Mumbai, Seattle and Tunbridge Wells. The company has further boosted its credentials with two BETT award nominations this year.

Maths-Whizz is perfect for Home Educators.
This is something we’ve probably always known, but never really made a fuss about, until Donna Cowan (one of our newest customers) pointed out yesterday:
