Personalised learning: Sparx Maths uses billions of data points to adapt to each student’s homework to their ability level, ensuring appropriate pace, challenge and support. In this way, every student receives a homework that's challenging but attainable, helping them to reinforce and build upon the skills they learn in the classroom.

Self-sufficient learning: Every homework question is accompanied by a short support video (over 10,000 support videos in total) to help students if they get stuck.

Bookwork Checks: Sparx Maths encourages students to write down their workings and answers with a unique system of bookwork checks. These checks remind students to record their workings and answers, supporting their understanding and enabling teachers to better support them.

Research-backed: Sparx Maths has been rigorously evaluated, with research conducted by Cambridge University and RAND Europe demonstrating its positive impact on student outcomes. This included conducting the first ever double-blind randomised controlled trial for an education technology product (read the research).

Significant progress: This research has found that consistently working for just 1 hour per week in Sparx Maths yields a 0.24 level improvement in GCSE grades on average across an academic year. In comparison to students who do not complete homework, students who use Sparx Maths for just 15 minutes extra practice each week will make 83% more progress. For each further 15 minutes of practice they make 67% more progress.

Improved completion rates: Research shows that schools using Sparx Maths, particularly those that send weekly emails to parents, see significantly higher homework completion rates – on average 15% higher than those who don’t.

Trusted by teachers: We believe that teachers know their students best, so we give them the option to override our personalisation if they prefer. However, teachers have only overridden our personalisation choices in less than 1% of homeworks generated.

Effective for all students: Sparx Maths is designed to be effective for all students, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds (read the research).

Designed for efficiency: We save teachers up to 5 hours per week with 9 in 10 teachers saying that using Sparx has reduced their workload (read the research).
