The adaptive learning program helping schools boost attainment in science, English and maths (KS3/4)

Tassomai helps students to learn and get their best grades, while also saving teachers time.
Tassomai’s multiple choice micro-quizzes reinforce knowledge through targeted repetition, like flashcards. At the same time the algorithm is learning each student’s strengths and weaknesses; it uses this information to target the gaps in a student’s knowledge and provide feedback to teachers on which areas individuals and entire classes need help with.
This means that Tassomai saves teachers time in two ways; it teaches AO1s, while also reducing the time they need to spend analysing their students, meaning they can focus on teaching and targeting intervention.
Although Tassomai’s unique algorithm focuses on a student’s weaknesses, it will not ignore their stronger topics, meaning that students benefit from both interleaving and spacing.
Tassomai initially focused on the GCSE science syllabus and built a strong reputation in this subject. Today the program includes Key Stage 3 and 4 maths, English language and English Literature, and even more subjects are available to private subscribing parents!
All of Tassomai’s content is written by subject specialists and teachers, and every topic and theme is directly matched to the specification.
Tassomai believes in demonstrating its impact through evidence, and the company is a founding member of the EdTech Evidence Group. Research shows the impact that Tassomai has on learners and the attainment gap, you can read more about this on the Tassomai website’s Impact page.
Tassomai charges on a per student basis, with schools using the program for years 7-11 paying no more than £5 per student (for each cohort that Tassomai is bought for, the cost per student becomes cheaper). Once signed up to the program, a school will have access to Tassomai until the beginning of the next academic year.
There are also discounts for PiXL schools, bulk orders from MATS and more. Tassomai will confirm a price and clarify which discounts you qualify for before starting your trial.
Tassomai recommends that where possible, schools should buy for entire year groups rather than selected groups of students as this enables teachers to make the most effective use of the data insights provided by the program.

Any school can have a one month free trial for any number of students.
All of the students entered for Triple Science passed, with the best results for Triple Science that we have seen for at least ten years.
The key to impact and efficacy comes down to successful implementation and that involves collaboration between teachers and technology providers.
Results in science that year jumped 10% A*/A with our triple cohort. However, our best improvement was the number of students gaining at least a B.
Matthew Moss High School got great results in a short space of time thanks to a committed team and a competitive spirit amongst teachers and students.
Tassomai as an intervention tool for GCSE science and strategies that made a big impact on grades and Progress 8 scores.
Embracing technology with our pupils has given each lesson start a sense of purpose and consistency. The daily goals feature gives pupils a short term goal in a low-stakes environment. It also allows pupils to develop a mature approach to the use of technology for learning. We have only been using the platform for a few months but we have already seen a significant impact on the progress of our pupils.
Tassomai has helped bring science onto the agenda of every member of staff in the school. All can now effectively support the science team.
As Pupil premium lead it helps me gain intelligence on students study habits and aptitudes for learning.
Allied with quality first teaching Tassomai has helped science results rise in every year that we have used it.
Fabulous, interactive tool for students to use independently to improve confidence in revision of the recall parts of the course.
Tassomai has had a tremendous impact on our student's engagement and overall understanding. Having arrived in our school as head of science mid-year, I was faced with some tough challenges, student-performance wise. Students have engaged with Tassomai and the department is seeing it's value in what we are subsequently learning in lessons - flipping the lessons has never been so easy.
Tassomai as a group helped us set up accounts with simple instructions and once logged on has supported us with additional classes which has benefited our department greatly in terms of managing students and viewing student performance..
It is very straight-forward to use as a student and as a teacher. I hope our school has enough cash to be able to commit to the full purchase as it is now a tremendous tool for our teachers and our students are relying on it (perhaps a little too much!)..
Fantastic tool for students and teachers.
Tassomai has provided our stduents with a personalised system that they want to use to revise science, and this has had proven impact on our results at GCSE.

We have been using Tassomai from Year 9 through to Year 11 and have really seen the difference over time in terms of pupils ability to recognise and recall key knowledge.
