Used The Maths Factor daily for 4-6 months

As a parent who was trying to teach topics to an advanced child who is ahead of his peers I found it so reassuring to have such a helpful engaging structure with brilliant videos and practice sessions, along with the games centre and clubs. The homework help section I thought was amazing. I was so looking forward to using this for many years to come with my children so I was very upset yesterday to learn that it was being discontinued. My son loves it and he is only P1 - I thought we had many more years to come with it. We will definitely make the most of our time left with it.
