My son used Atom learning in primary school (just at home to consolidate learning) and now he's in Y7 it has all fallen by the wayside. It was superb in primary school and helped him so much. He loved that it was online (so like screen time not a workbook!) and loved the confidence it gave him.

So I'm looking for an equivalent but with the Y7/8 curriculum. Happy to pay of course (expect to pay) Has anyone used anything?

Try Dr Frost for Maths

Also BBC bitesize is good for Science. And my kids like Quizlet too for languages and you can also make your own revision tests.

Online resources are great but the child also needs to learn to gather their own resources from different places. That is great uni preparation as well

Have you tried Khan Academy? It’s very good.

It's the best online resource for science in my view.

As a secondary science teacher I agree - even better than any of the ones that you pay for.

I'm with you. I so wish there was a simple-to-use, AI / adaptive online option like Atom for KS3 and beyond!

All the others are quite good but don't think quite as straightforward and it was good good it was all under one umbrella, so to speak. Atom should probably look into it (unless they are already) - missed business opportunity!
