Please note that a user account is required to play this game, for more information please visit: https://www.emile-education.com The Emile range of resources has been developed by a group of teachers, academics and game developers. Together we have developed and supplied games-based learning resources to over 15% of the primary schools in the UK & Ireland. Our range of resources are all underpinned by robust pedagogical research and are tested rigorously by teachers in classrooms. Initiated by a Knowledge Transfer Partnership and part funded by Innovate UK, Emile was developed in conjunction with the Faculty of Education of Manchester Metropolitan University in the UK based on robust pedagogy.  The multi-award-winning resource delivers a real impact on the learning outcomes of students throughout key stages 1 and 2, while reducing teacher workload significantly, especially when combined with Emile's own schemes of work. UK teachers' feedback has been integral to the development of Emile. As a direct result, Emile now features: - a Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) Emulator with additional controls to control the time limits, the questions asked and slow students down; - a full and comprehensive spelling scheme targeted directly at the statutory spelling words; - end of unit and end of block assessments that dovetail with the White Rose scheme of work; and - tools to help students in intervention groups including auto generated knowledge gap analyses. Used in thousands of schools and multi-academy trusts across the country, Emile is perfect for homework, classroom work, assessments (both formative and summative) and intervention groups.

11 Plus Academy gets children ready for the 11+ a step at a time. Our Pre 11+ programme, for Year 4, is a year-long plan that builds the skills the 11+ tests at a gentler level, in short daily sessions. A 36-WEEK STUDY PATH Each week covers English, maths, verbal reasoning and non-verbal reasoning. Every day brings a short lesson, a worksheet and practice questions, often with a game, and each week ends with a Boss Test. THE 11+ FORMAT FROM DAY ONE Questions follow the 11+ multiple-choice style, with five answers to choose from. Spelling and punctuation use the "find the mistake" format, and non-verbal reasoning uses picture puzzles, so the real exam feels familiar. MOCK EXAMS Ten timed papers in each subject, plus six full mock exams set out like the real two-part test, with its own time limit for each section. Results show the score for each section, so you can see where to focus next. GAMES THAT BUILD SKILLS Puzzle games for words, numbers and shapes. Times tables in seven modes, from Quick Fire to Division Mode. Spelling games with audio, including Listen & Spell, which reads each word aloud. PROGRESS YOU CAN SEE Streaks, stars and topic results show what your child has mastered and what to practise next. Questions they get wrong come back later for another go. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED Open the app and start. There is no sign-up, and everything in the app is free.
