REVIEWS
"Good graphics & an excellent teaching & learning guide."
TES Online

"Junior Control Insight allows the pupils to all learn at their own speed and make their work unique."
Kate Jacklin, Saltaire Primary School, Shipley

"It enables the pupils to create simulations on screen, they learn as they go along which they find fun and don’t often realise they are learning."
Christine Whitehead, Antrobus St Mark’s Primary School, Cheshire

"It fully supports the Control element of the ICT Curriculum."
Cathy Thomas, Colham Manor Primary School, Hillingdon

"Teachers can be deterred from exploiting the potential of on-screen control software... Junior Control Insight addresses these problems with an intuitive interface."
Primary Choice

"Older, more advanced children are showing younger pupils how to do “cool things” with the software. This sharing of ideas stands as testament to the unique way in which Control Insight captures pupils’ imagination."
Helen Wilkes, ICT Co-ordinator, Ridgeway Middle School, Worcestershire
