About the study

Our Scotland Efficacy Study is currently live and running until May 2026. 

We are working with ImpactEd Evaluation to gather attainment and pupil survey data from P6 pupils at 12 Scotland primary schools. We are also conducting focus groups and teacher interviews to provide both qualitative and quantitative insight into the Sumdog Maths platform. 

Interested in the impact in your own school?

Our interim report

This interim report is based on a number of focus groups conducted with 9 teachers who have used Sumdog for 5 or more years. 

It was great to see Sumdog recognised as an invaluable diagnostic resource and drive of engagement and motivation. Read our full interim report to learn more.

“The low attainers in my class love it… their confidence is much more confident than when they're working through workbooks.”

41% of children were deemed to be active pupils… after a year of doing the competition, that jumped up to 75%

“It helps me plan better… I know which group needs the most support… it just takes no time.”
