Stories from our schools
How schools across the country are boosting confidence and progress through one to one maths tutoring
Rob Davies, Deputy Headteacher
Kent
“We were down by 2 maths teachers and needed to address growing gaps in KS3.”
De Lacy Primary Academy
West Yorkshire
"Third Space Learning is not just for those pupils who need significant intervention, it hits every pupil."
George Eliot Academy
West Midlands
“The earlier we can get students practising things like this the better.”
St Matthias Primary
Hackney
“The work is pitched at the right level for each child, even though the teacher isn’t directly involved. This really cuts down on our workload!”
Outwood Grange Academies Trust
West Yorkshire
“Word got out that it was having a positive impact and we then obviously wanted a piece of the action as well!”
Westfield School
Sheffield
“The group who attended the sessions improved 1.19 of a GCSE maths grade on average, 0.46 more than those who didn't have the sessions."
St Michael's Primary School
Reading, Berkshire
"We went for an external provider because it was quicker and easier, but we needed to be confident in the quality. That's why we chose Third Space Learning"
Barclay Academy
Stevenage, Hertfordshire
“I was hesitant to put our Year 11s on at first as I wasn’t sure the tutors would know the GCSE exam specifications as well as our staff - I’m so glad we did!”
Hague Primary School
Bethnal Green
"We’re really happy with our SATs results. One child doing sessions had been working towards the Expected Standard and made so much progress. He was only 1 mark away from Greater Depth!"
Holte School
Birmingham
“Feedback about the programme from the whole of SLT has been fantastic. The Head of Mathematics popped into a session and was blown away by what he saw.”
St. Augustine's Academy
Dunstable, Bedfordshire
"This is exactly what our pupils need. It’s enabled us to give them support at the level that’s right for them and it’s been really good for plugging gaps. It’s brilliant!"
St Giles CE Primary School
Willenhall, West Midlands
“It’s such a fantastic, well-researched programme. It’s had a huge impact on our pupils maths learning.”
Wilnecote Junior
Wilnecote
“The minute I saw Third Space Learning in action and saw the confidence these children had in speaking to their tutors, I went to my Headteacher and said “We’ve got to get this, it's the most amazing thing!”.
Sir John Sherbrooke Junior School
Nottingham
"It's a creative and focused way to use technology and it really takes some of the stress off of the teacher!"
All Saints Catholic Primary, Anfield
Anfield, Merseyside
“One of the great things about Third Space Learning has been hearing the pupils talk about their maths.”
St Paul's Catholic Junior School
Liverpool
"After this year's lockdown and partial school closures, we wanted an intervention that could support all of our Year 5 and 6 pupils at once.”
Thorntree Academy
Middlesbrough
“Once the children had been back for a couple of weeks, we needed to get an indication as to where they were academically.”
Morland Primary School
Ipswich
“We knew that catch up learning would need to take place for our pupils.”
Brompton Westbrook Primary School
Gillingham
"With Third Space Learning, we can actually have them learn new concepts. It’s not reliant on the parents."
Lytham Hall Park
Lancashire
“The transition to learning from home worked really well!"
