If we ordered the maths explained video lessons for our school – the whole pack for 60 pounds – how would that work? Could all teachers use it at any time? Or is it only available for 1 user or on one computer?

Schools can use it within and across the school, but must not let it be accessed outside the school. If they wish students to access the videos at home then separate access must be purchased for each
student.

Can I buy more than one set of videos on the same account?

It is not possible to buy more than one set of videos on one account, because it is set up for single license use. If it is for more than one person you need to buy it using two separate accounts.

I am looking at buying all of the maths videos. I was wondering if there was any time limit for their availability to me after purchase? I am hoping once I buy them, I will always have them
as a resource? Could you please clarify this for me?

There is no time limit. Once you have the videos, you have them as a resource.

Does the content of the tutorials match our curriculum?

The tutorials cover topics that are common to most curricula, from the very basic skill of counting to algebra. They may not cover the whole curriculum, but they will give support for the core topics. They are designed to address the ‘basics’.

How can I check if they will work for a student?

There is a sample video on the home page and a number of other samples with some of the topics. Do remember, nothing works for everyone. Your input may aid learning for an even wider range of students.
