The App uses high quality 3D animation, video, imagery, professional voice-overs, text and interactive activities with high score functions to ensure effective learning of relevant curriculum topics. Superb for class or independent learning and revision both in school and at home, delivering an engaging interactive learning experience.

Thanks to a user-friendly interface, navigation through the content is made easy and intuitive, including swipe gestures, scrolls and expandable menus.

Each section is completed with activities (fill in the blanks and quizzes) to reinforce learning.

You you can easily take a test on any topic, and know which ones you haven't been tested on yet, or redo the ones you haven't scored 100% on yet. You can even compare your scores with other users through the game center, highlighting performance on each topic, age range or whole subject.
