The four papers

Four finished courses

Every one taught category by category, every question with its answer, and the harder ones with the formula or rule spelled out. Both reasoning papers are also tested throughout the quiz papers, and have been since the app launched.

Maths

280 questions · 68 topics

Fractions, percentages, area and perimeter, angles, time, place value, ratio and the rest, each with a worked tip.

English

576 questions · 78 topics

Grammar, punctuation, word classes, figurative language and the comprehension vocabulary examiners keep returning to.

Verbal Reasoning

200 questions · 20 topics

Letter codes, missing letters, odd one out and word logic, in the shapes the GL papers actually use.

Non-Verbal Reasoning

220 questions · 22 topics

Shape sequences, rotations, reflections and the odd figure out, every one with its own drawing rather than a description of one.

The loop

A question, a guess, then the answer

Courses are recall practice rather than multiple choice. The answer stays hidden until your child asks for it, because a list of four options lets you find the right answer without ever knowing it.

  1. Pick a topic

    Grouped by category, with Easy and Hard side by side. Nothing is a locked path through a syllabus, so a weak spot can be attacked directly.

  2. Answer it in your head

    The question sits alone on the screen. No options to eliminate, no way to guess your way to a tick.

  3. Tap Show answer

    The answer appears, with the formula or the rule underneath it where one exists. That is the teaching, and it arrives at the moment it is wanted.

  4. A block goes on the tower

    One block per question and five more for finishing a topic, both doubled on Hard. A topic is marked complete once every question in it has been seen.

Maths · Area, Perimeter & Volume · Easy

How do you calculate the area of a rectangle?

The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length and width of the rectangle.

The formula. Area of a rectangle = length × width

Maths

Every category, and every topic in it

280 questions across 12 categories. Each topic below appears twice in the app, once in Easy and once in Hard, which is why the tile counts twice as many topics as there are names here.

Verbal and non-verbal reasoning

Two full courses, and tested in the quizzes too

Both reasoning papers have their own complete course, and both are also tested throughout the quiz papers, as they have been since the app launched.

Every non-verbal question is drawn, not described. The figures are generated from the same parameters as the question itself, so the picture and the reasoning cannot disagree, and every one of them carries a description for a child using a screen reader.

Two levels, everywhere

Easy and Hard, on every single topic

Every topic name on this page exists twice. Tap Easy or Hard at the top of a category and the whole list swaps: different questions, same topic, a step up in what is expected.

Start where your child is

A Year 4 starting early works through Easy. A Year 6 four weeks out goes straight to Hard. Neither has to pretend to be the other.

Progress is tracked per level

Finishing Easy on fractions does not quietly tick off Hard. The two are counted separately, so “done” means done, and Hard pays double the blocks.

And beyond the courses

Cards, quizzes and printable papers

242 vocabulary cards

Each word with its meanings, an example sentence, its synonyms and its antonyms. Shuffled into a recall deck, so your child has to remember it before it flips.

36 mixed quiz papers

Ten questions each, mixed across all four papers and scored on accuracy. The closest thing in the app to sitting the real thing.

Printable papers

For the days a screen is the wrong answer. Free to download, no email address, and they work on a kitchen table.

Progress

What has been done, and what has not

Every question answered is counted against its topic, so the gaps are visible without anybody having to mark anything.

A topic turns complete when your child has been through it. Quiz papers keep a best score. The tower is coloured by paper on purpose: a single-colour tower answers “how much”, which nobody is really asking. A coloured one answers “what”, and three weeks of maths next to an untouched English column is a conversation you can actually have.

It lives in the app rather than arriving in your inbox, because a child who knows a report is going to a parent stops answering honestly.

Open it and look

Reading a list of topics is not the same as watching your child answer one. The app is free, it opens straight into questions, and you can see the level for yourself before you decide anything.
