Our impact

Tassomai makes a difference!

Tassomai is raising attainment in GCSE science, maths, English, history, geography, computer science and other subjects. The program is used by private subscribing families and more than 300,000 students in 500+ schools across England and Wales.

Tassomai is changing the way students learn, and enabling teachers to spend less time on marking and more time teaching.

Tassomai has had an incredible impact on the progress of our students and has helped to plug the knowledge gap due to COVID.

Class of 23/24

Meet Tassomai’s Class of 2024!

Let’s celebrate...Tassomai’s Class of 2024

Over the 23/24 academic year Tassomai was used in schools for up to 6 different subjects, we were also delighted to have introduced students and teachers to our new AI-tutor Mai.

Congratulations to all of our hard-working students, particularly those who have taken exams. We hope all those questions answered, videos watched and Daily Goals completed help you to get your best possible grades!

 

We have now subscribed to Tassomai for several years and have seen such a dramatic difference in our pupils that our GCSE results last year were some of the best we have ever had, and as such we are really looking forward to continuing to work with you.
- Holly Bradshaw, science teacher, Marple Hall School, Stockport

 

The more a student uses Tassomai the better their results

Tassomai conducted its first mass data study in 2017, taking in over 68,000 examination module results from Tassomai-using schools, cross-referencing with their students’ course progress statistics and measuring the impact on outcomes.

The data showed exceptionally high correlation between Tassomai usage and attainment, with 90% of strong users achieving a strong pass or better (vs. 68% nationally) and 50% achieving a top grade.

Our internal statistics consistently show that pupils who are fully engaged with the program have a 92% chance of meeting their targets.

"Students always say "Miss, do you know how I remembered that… Tassomai!

Tassomai helps schools to close the attainment gap

 

A second major data study was undertaken in the academic year 2018/2019, to look at Tassomai’s impact on student progress with a large-scale pre & post trial.

Knowledge and recall was tested in the app at the start of the academic year, and again at the end of the year. The change in attainment was cross-referenced with engagement in the Tassomai program, and the cohort was stratified by their initial performance into a lower-attaining and higher-attaining group.

The cohort was a randomised sample of 1500 students of all abilities distributed around the UK in various school settings.

The research showed that students of all abilities improved in their knowledge recall with Tassomai, and that this improvement increased with increased use of the software.

Further to this, the effect on students of lower initial abilities was more marked - a fact that has far-reaching implications for schools seeking to close their attainment gap in STEM subjects.

Helping teachers to spend their time teaching, not marking!

 

Used as a homework tool and lesson starter, Tassomai reduces time spent on the setting and marking of formative assessment, and on the collation of data for the purpose of planning intervention.

Teachers at St. John Bosco College estimated that Tassomai saved each GCSE classroom teacher 2 hours per week per class - time that is deployed more usefully into supporting students with their studies.

In addition, the use of Tassomai to cover staff absence, or to inform cover teachers of student needs presents a considerable saving in cover budget and resources.

The reduction in marking has been notable… Tassomai essentially allows us to have more learning time both within and outside of lesson and results in fewer admin and paperwork tasks.
