"This will allow teachers delivering the Welsh Curriculum to tailor the learning of pupils in their class to specific skills in the Welsh curriculum and will benefit the pupils' numeracy skills immensely. It will allow teachers to assess essential numeracy skills in the curriculum and target their online learning to meet the needs of every learner, regardless of their ability. Plus, the games are great fun and fully engage and motivate the pupils!"
