SPARX

What is Sparx?

Sparx is a platform for students to complete their Maths homework only. Sparx allows our teachers to set tailored practice homework and we use this to include repetition and interleaving of learning, as this supports a change in students’ long term memories. The platform provides personalised tasks set at the correct level of challenge, based on a student’s ability to answer previous questions. For this reason, it is vital that students answer the questions themselves, although support is always welcome.

To hear more about Sparx and what is expected of students, please watch the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt5JCjgiMsc .

For September 2024: When students first log onto Sparx, there is an introduction task so that students can familiarise themselves with the recently updated website. Parents and carers may want to watch these introductory videos with students so they are also familiar with how the platform works. 

Accessing Sparx

Visit www.sparxmaths.com, select 'Student Login' in the top corner and then type ‘Honley High School’.  The first time students access Sparx, they will need to register as a new user. Following this, the platform generates their username (this is usually their name) and the students set their own password. They will be asked for this username and password for future logins.

If a student has already registered and cannot remember their password, they should click the ‘forgotten login’ option, which allows their teacher to reset it.
