SCART notes:
The level of content provided by this app is just enough. Separate explanations could be provided to cater for students who require a different way to look at fundamental ideas.
In saying this, the app is extremely useful for its intended purpose – revision for GCSE Chemistry students. The notes are very clearly laid out in a logical way and are colourful/easy to read.
However, the app is not available to android users which poses a bit of an accessibility problem, especially with so much encouragement for teachers/students to switch to digital learning.

SCART recommendation:
GCSE Chemistry students 100% need to check this app out around revision time. Students who miss lessons due to sickness etc would really benefit from using this app. Could also be useful to recommend to students of all curriculums upon approval by teachers.

SCART score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐


Lots of love,
SCART xx
