As a year 9 pupil with high-functioning autism I find myself dreading doing homework now because oh my god it is quite literally the WORST thing I have ever used in my life. When you get a question wrong in the times table segment of homework, even on accident, it stifles you with "DURR, what's 8x9" or whatever for WEEKS if not MONTHS. It is quite literally very annoying for me since naturally, I work fast and I'm one of the best pupils when it comes to mathematics in my school, so when I'm being slowed down it annoys me. And then the questions themselves in the homework. If you get a question wrong more than THREE times, it changes the numbers drastically without actually making the question, y'know, EASIER so that it could be understood? I have saw my classmates struggle on questions because of this. It also includes an EXP system which entices kids to work at home. I understand that but literally using DIGITAL INTERNET POINTS? My school has recently switched to Sparx from the traditional way of just doing homework on paper (I'd say about 2-3 months ago) and. WHY. Just WHY. At least take the time to read these OTHER reviews from these OTHER students in OTHER schools before implementing such a shitty program in a CRUCIAL building block of your shitshow of a school.
