Paid-for resources website (Primary) recommendations?

I am on the points of paying up for Twinkl but I wondered if anyone had any other recommendations?

Basically I want differentiated worksheets for the new curriculum (primarily maths and spag). I don't use worksheets much but sometimes I want to just be able to reach for 4 or 5 different levels of consolidation tasks and don't want to go from scratch. Or extension tasks to grab mid-lesson.

Does anybody have a really comprehensive site- or a great dynamic site where you can generate your own tasks quickly?

What year group? I use Twinkl a lot, but for display and games eg bingo to download, print and laminate. I haven't spent a lot of time looking for their worksheets, but when I have I haven't been over impressed - it seems to take me a lot of time to find what's there and then it doesn't really match what I want.

If you're KS2, then for Maths I'd spend £8 on a Target Your Maths textbook - 3 levels of differentiation on a page. If you're KS1, then pm me!

Mixed age (KS1&2 P8-L6+!) Resource Base. I did sign up to twinkl as the range seems to suit us- there are far more worksheets/ activities etc. than I remember. I always thought they only did those 'sit nicely' posters. Grin

I used a couple of maths worksheets yesterday for my super-able Y6s and the TAs were raiding the display stuff so I think it will be worth it for us- although clearly not the Holy Grail.

Still looking for the Holy Grail should anyone else have any ideas!!

ActiveMaths. Co.UK is a relatively cheap resource if u just want plain worksheets of questions. You can have look before u buy... I obviously wouldn't advise print screening the content for free. That would be immoral...

I am actually using my Twinkl subscription LOADS. There are assessment packs for maths and SPaG that I am finding really useful and very often a handy worksheet to grab.

It has been far better than I was expecting.
