Logging in to your account is easy and can be done through the Mathletics website or alternatively through the quicklink on the Academy home page.

Mathletics isn't just a digital maths textbook, it is a tutor, with its step by step help section which guides students through the appropriate method to solve a question they maybe stuck upon. If a student begins to get questions wrong, the software detects this and presents easier questions until these are mastered. In essence the package is like a 24 hour Maths tutor.
Mathletics logs student activity on the software, enabling teachers to monitor student progress in addition to feeding back results which may highlight areas where extra help maybe required. Mathletics will accompany the current maths tuition that students currently receive at the Academy, with a view to also enriching and motivating students, allowing them to work through the curriculum at their own pace.
Each student has their own unique username and password to use on the system, if you have lost your credentials or just forgotten them, please speak to your Maths tutuor.
