Absolutely disgusting website. Sparx maths is my thirteenth reason I honestly hate it, the way the app has been made and the constant weekly resets is horrid, the amount of questions and the fact that they get harder when u succeed but u have no choice to get it right feels like a trap. I hate this app and hope the creators get sued one day.

Genuine Soyslop
This app is genuine soyslop made by the hive mind of teachers who's personality has been hacked by the sparx maths corporate agenda. I would rather drink 60 liters of sour tobasco and marmite than do these dumb homeworks - it is designed to be impractical and tedious and the videos are about as helpful as a hit on the head since they dont relate to the question whatsoever. Bookwork checks are literally pointless and solely aim to torture the free minds of children who are forced by the hivemind to give into the iron maiden of sparx maths questions.

Helps me learn a lot
Helps me learn a lot. When I don't understand a question a video is available to go through the steps of how to solve the question. Very helpful 5 stars!!

Sparx maths is a form of tourture
Sparx maths is a horrible website where people have to keep re doing questions to get it right and it uses rubbish ai that thinks your excelling when your actually failing so you cannot awnser the questions as it makes it too hard.I would rather rip off my own skin and eat it than do Sparx maths again.

Not even homework.
You may assume that everything to do with sparx is instantly review bombed so negatively because it's homework. You'd be mistaken, this is genuinely terrible!
-Why homework even is homework-
Sparx maths ignores every principle of why and what homework was even made for. Homework was made so that the things you learnt that are now in short term memory can be recalled so that it moves into long term memory. Sparx maths does the opposite! It's so bad that the amount of tears wept and the amount of scribbles and stabs in your notebook distract you from actually learning.
-The videos-
The videos overcomplicate everything and use completely different questions than the one you're actually trying to solve. The app makes sure that you 100% complete everything correctly, meaning that if you LITERALLY genuinely cannot comprehend a question, too bad, you now have to either brute force it until you get it right or just cave in and google lens it, which adds on to the short term not developing into long term thing since you're not actively recalling anything!
-Learning hinderances-
I don't have any learning difficulties that I know about like dyslexia, yet I find myself sobbing in my room on a tuesday midnight because I can't answer the questions, so imagine how bad it is for someone who actually has learning disabilities!
-The app forcing you-
Sparxmaths kicks you while you're down by making it so that the more you struggle and fail, the more you get what you're struggling at forced down your throat (specifically refering to bookwork checks but more on that later). And even if you ARE doing good, it gracefully rewards you with even MORE difficult questions, so both sides of successors and strugglers fail in the end!
-Bookwork checks-
How bookwork checks work is that ocasionally, you will have to recall the answer to a previous question, infering from the answer accompanied with the bookward code that you are expected to have written in your notebook. The problem with this is that if you get the recall wrong, instead of it just moving on or something like that, it dumps you with MORE and MORE bookwork checks, assuming that you know the answers to them too.
-Conclusion-
This SERIOUSLY is mentally harmful to kids.

TERRIBLE learning app
Generally, this website is SO ahh. The questions are ridiculous as hell, the videos that are meant to "help" you really don't make a difference and just waste some precious minutes of your life which you could be spending them on soooo much better things rather than this stupid app. aand, when i can't do the 100 club check which sometimes happens, i have to do those AWFULLY stupid times table games that force you to think about questions in your head for 10 seconds despite getting not a single answer wrong. So annoying, Mark Dixon founded sparx maths to "enhance learning" yeah bro, who the heck is he bro. HE just makes us suffer every single week for hours on end. stupid website, stupid app, schools are stupid for considering such a thing to be used for homework
