This is a joke what the heck do you mean if I don’t finish/complete my work then it comes up with “late”. Are you joking me

I hate sparx maths for the following reasons: 1: bookwork check some people dont even have notebooks and others have mental problems who cannot multitask.2: multi subject learning why are we expected to struggle more because we cant do certain areas does not mean repeat them over and over also the fact that a question can be a lot harder like being 1 off a answer because that it needs you to get everything write like 99% = 0% to them and compulsary hmework wants complet is the bare minimum. it is just overly boring no one likes it it feels like you are forced it is horrid it needs to be removed

Sparx is absolute rubbish, this terrible homework has caused me so much stress because of how useless the videos are, Im amazed how so many schools use this terrible homework website. When I get a question wrong i cant move on, the videos dont help either because it’s never the same question Im desperately trying to answer to not get a detention. If you miss just one question on this useless website you will fail the homework and get a detention. My school uses this and it is utter rubbish, this useless platform teaches me nothing and should not be used in schools.

I will say im not a very stressed person but doing sparx maths has brought me to tears on meny occasions. It doesn't allow you to move on from a question so you end up in a endless loop. The bookwork checks make the maths homework impossible to do on the go. I have never hated maths more.

Honestly its so incredibly shit. You have do do so much questions and im so happy my math teachers dont care about bookwork checks because whats the point everyone who has sparxs homework just use AI because they cant be bothered to do such bad homework. I have not done my sparx in weeks because i would rather face punishment than do this all it does is makes children miserable and hate maths just take it down at this point because its just disappointing

Bookwork checks are horrendous, and their website doesn't even show the Trustpilot score because they know that they are bad. You have to have 100 per cent completion, and if you don't, then detention. It punishes bad people by not giving them answers, and good people by giving harder questions that even parents would struggle with.

This is so bad I want to give you a zero but that’s not possible so I give you a one. The major problems are this: .The bookwork checks .The need for 100% completion .The overall demand and stress laid on you to do the work Let's dissect these issues one by one. First of all, and one of the most egregious issues, the bookwork checks. Now, quite frankly, there is no way of defending this feature. It is not asking you to check the work you have done in your book, no, what it's asking is that you go back and recite the answer to the site. What does this do? Be incentive for people to write down answers? Well what's the point? In any circumstance in maths, you do not need to memorise answers to questions. Maybe you could say it stops people from using calculators for questions they shouldn't but you can usually get most calculators to relay answers to you. They're not even smart ways to revise because nobody is looking through how they got to the answer, they're simply looking for the answer. They just bloat every homework you do. Next, the mandatory 100% completion on every homework. How many people do you know get 100% on everything? It's demanding perfection from students, some of whom likely cannot manage. And branding anyone who doesn't comply as LATE is ridiculous because quite frankly, they have had a go! But Sparx doesn't care if you've had a go and can't complete something, no, they just tell you to ask your teacher about it before the homework is due if you fail it oh so many times. You do also have the option to swap a question with an easier one. Three times. On homework that I have seen in the past go up to 10 sections. In sections that I have seen have 10 (and potentially more than that) questions. You can switch for an easier question, thrice. That leads nicely into my point of the demand and stress over the site. The site demands perfection for you to complete a homework so your teachers demand perfection. Don't ascertain perfection? Then, depending on what your school is like, you can be punished. Same with parents and carers. The site demands perfection so they demand perfection and if you can't get perfection then, again depending on your parents and carers, it's punishment time for you. What does all this cause? Stress. Stress to do the homework, to get it perfect, to get 100%, to not get in trouble from either your parents or your teachers or, if you fail, stress because you are in trouble and with all that, Sparx Maths takes on the proportions of Sisyphus' rock. Overall, Sparx Maths does not work as a tool for revision, nor for a reputable homework site; it simply acts as a burden on yourself and the ones you must do the homework for. I can hazard the guess that the same goes for any other Sparx products.Sparx needs to improve itself immediately if it doesn't want to risk becoming obsolete in potentially even just a few years time.

One star. Spark Maths is frustrating to use and doesn’t explain things clearly. The questions often feel confusing rather than helpful and it’s hard to actually learn from mistakes It ends up feeling more like guessing than actual maths practice.
