About this title

Review

...easy to use, provides great value for money and helps to give structure and rigour to both teaching and learning, providing daily practice of mathematical concepts - at a level that's appropriate to each individual. --Assistant Director for Children's Services, Darlington Borough Council

All in all we have had some really good results using this series at Key Stage 3. We use the books during form time and for a period of about 15 minutes during each maths lesson. --Cockburn High School, Leeds
