MINDARC

The learning approach

A way forward.
At every sticking point.

MindArc brings explanation, practice and support into a connected maths learning sequence. The aim is to help learners understand their next step, not simply finish another question.

From first step to next session

Keep the learning
within reach.

01

Start small

Short lessons and confidence checks help learners begin with a manageable piece of maths.

02

Support the thinking

Scaffolded explanations make the steps visible and help learners revisit the understanding they need.

03

Guided retries

Guided retries give learners support before another attempt, so getting stuck becomes an opportunity to understand the next step.

04

Make room for confidence

A correct answer and feeling ready are different things. Confidence belongs in the learning conversation, alongside practice.

05

Return to the learning

Spaced review brings earlier learning back into later sessions. Review is kept manageable, so learners have a clear place to start next time.

A concrete example

Show the step.
Then let them try.

Here, a learner needs to isolate x. Choosing an unhelpful first move opens an explanation of the step, followed by another attempt.

This example explains the support principle. It does not represent the full MindArc interface or an assessment of the learner.

A small step in algebra

Solve 3x + 4 = 19

What should we do first to get x on its own?

A worked example of the approach, not a live product screen.

The distinction that matters

More questions aren’t always
the answer.

Practice matters. So does what happens when practice reveals a difficulty. MindArc focuses on that moment: the explanation, the missing step and the chance to come back with more confidence.

Free school trials

Let’s start with
your learners.

We’re inviting a small first cohort of mainstream secondary schools to trial MindArc. No payment details and no automatic move to a paid contract.
