Support progress for SEND students
DreamBox Maths adaptive technology, access to pre-key stage knowledge and detailed reporting supports SEND students to progress.
This benefits:
- Mainstream schools where SEND and non-SEND students simultaneously receive the perfect amount of challenge.
- Interventions tailored to each student’s needs.
- Special schools to ensure that when students are learning at the same time - their individual needs are being met.
Engage learners behind ARE to make progress
Struggling students may purposefully disengage due to maths anxiety and fear of making mistakes in front of peers, which can also impact behaviour.
DreamBox Maths’ gamified interface helps re-capture students’ interest and they are encouraged to explore, make mistakes in a safe environment and use support tools at their own pace.
For learners who need maths intervention or are working well below ARE, the programme presents content with an age-appropriate interface, helping students access earlier content without feeling stigmatised.
