How primary maths tutoring works with Skye
Drawing on insights from 12 years of school-based tutoring and feedback from primary school teachers, we’ve built Skye to teach just like a primary education specialist, but for a fraction of the cost.
Skye is not a generic chatbot, it’s engaging primary maths tutoring on a deeper level. Students learn through spoken, two-way conversation, talking through primary maths problems out loud while Skye, their AI tutor, listens and responds.

Low-cost one-to-one support for every Year 4-6 pupil who needs it
With Skye, you can run as many one-to-one maths sessions as you need for one low fixed cost.
If you find more students need support as you go through the year, you won’t need to find space in the budget or need to take other students off the programme.
A two-form entry primary school will save an average of 90% vs traditional one-to-one primary tutors.
Structured, scaffolded lessons from a primary maths tutor
Every lesson is designed by qualified teachers to follow an “I do, we do, you do” structure.
Skye has been specifically trained to use this curriculum of primary lessons, teaching maths to address learning gaps, boost maths knowledge, build problem solving skills, deepen understanding, develop confidence and boost progress.

Personalised learning made easy at scale
Skye starts each lesson with an initial assessment to adapt teaching, so as a primary maths tutor it can then address learning gaps or skip straight to independent practice if the child ready.
Teachers can re-order lessons at any point to ensure the tutoring experience aligns with their own intervention and teaching goals.

As well as using Skye for regular, scheduled sessions throughout the year, schools can also use the primary maths tutor:
For extra maths lessons with ad-hoc, on-demand sessions
For more frequent exam practice to boost progress before SATs
For short term cover to address staff shortages or absences
