not so good news
A valid criticism of our research is the small sample size.
This year we are working on rectifying this as follows:
...
our problem, which became an opportunity
We had a few problems, lockdown and an upgrade to our data base, but we decided to use this as an opportunity to upgrade timely practice to
- be able to be used in more situations e.g. alternative provision, small group intervention etc
- be able to be used by teachers and teaching assistants who are not maths specialists,
- be quicker to begin to use,
- be able to compare progress with classes/ parts of the year where the same class, with the same teacher teaches with/without timely practice.
help us collect more data
We still offering free trials , in the academic year
...
2022-23 in exchange for comparative data for the following categories:-
- short intervention course (outside of timetable) compared with regular maths teaching in maths lessons a 1 a shorter term trial comparing retained learning gain with business as usual lessons and 1 cycle of timely practice
- a 2 term trial comparing retained learning gain with business as usual lessons and 2 cycles of timely practice
...
- (for 3 to 6 weeks) and timely practice (for the same duration)
- assessing current learning in the topics to be taught,
- teaching some units using the school's existing teaching and assessment regimen,
- teaching other units as advised by timely practice, and using timely practice to schedule regular retrieval practice,
- assessing the retained learning
- at least 6 weeks after the last teaching/school's regular assessment of the units of the trial,
- to calculate the retained learning gain
The 1 term trial allows the topics allocated to timely practice to only be taught once.

- a GCSE retake trial - comparing grade grain with past cohorts and current cohort
