Why 
Works
Concept and Example Videos
Each skill includes tutorials to explain the concept, along with example videos — helping learners understand before they begin practicing.
Skill-by-Skill Practice
Each worksheet focuses on a single skill at a time — no mixing topics. Learners build understanding step-by-step, without feeling overwhelmed.
From Basics to Advanced
Practice includes foundational, revision, and high-mark challenge questions — helping every learner, whether they’re catching up or aiming for top results.
CAPS-Aligned Content
All practice is aligned to the DBE & IEB Maths standard, from Grade 3 to 10. GradeUp covers all topics and skills needed at each level — no gaps, no guesswork.
Why video explanations boost maths learning
Proven results, built into every 
Why Video Memos Work
Independent research proves that short, step-by-step videos ignite real progress in maths. A 2024 peer-reviewed meta-analysis of 14 experiments found that nine out of every ten learners taught with video explanations outperformed peers who relied on text or talk alone.
Worksheets
Built for consistent practice that strengthens understanding, maintains progress,
and reinforces topics learners find challenging.
Learning Objectives
This isn’t theory — it’s South African data
Grade 4–6:
In a KwaZulu-Natal study, 100% of learners improved understanding after watching short video clips. Even pupils who previously struggled could solve problems they once found too hard.
Grade 7–12:
Learners who used structured video learning were:
• 233% more likely to score over 60% in Maths
• 61% more likely to pass maths
(Numeric programme, 10 000+ learners, 10-year study)
Exam Preparation
Built for exam readiness — simulates real conditions, builds confidence,
and identifies areas to improve.
Learning Objectives
Consistent across ages
From Grade 3 right through to Grade 10, 84 %-100 % of learners in well-designed studies made measurable progress when short, explicit video explanations were added to practice.
Supports struggling learners
Studies that targeted learners who were already behind showed the highest lift, confirming that video memos help close gaps, not widen them.
Engagement and self-pacing
Qualitative feedback highlights replay, pause, and embedded quizzes as key to keeping teens on task, exactly the design used in GradeUp’s step-by-step video memos.
Why is my child struggling to understand maths even after doing homework?
Homework often lacks guided explanation, leaving learners unsure how to correct mistakes or understand concepts fully.
GradeUp’s solution:
Every practice question on GradeUp includes a step-by-step video memo, so your child sees exactly how to work through the problem — just like having a tutor explain it.
I don’t have time to sit with my child — how can I support their maths learning?
Many parents feel overwhelmed because they can’t assist with every concept or check all the answers themselves.
GradeUp’s solution:
With automated marking, video-guided practice, and progress emails sent directly to you, you stay informed without needing to do any marking or teaching.
My child gets anxious about maths tests and lacks confidence. How can I help them prepare better?
Without real test experience, many learners feel unprepared for the pressure of exams.
GradeUp’s solution:
Our exam prep tools simulate real exam conditions and include video memos for every question, so learners practice under pressure while still learning from their mistakes.
My child forgets concepts quickly — how can I make sure the learning sticks?
Repetition without understanding leads to short-term memorising rather than true learning.
GradeUp’s solution:
Each topic includes a concept tutorial and example videos before learners begin practising, helping them understand the “why” behind each step.
We’ve tried other apps, but they’re either too easy or don’t follow the curriculum. How is GradeUp different?
Many local apps aren’t fully aligned with CAPS (DBE) or IEB requirements, and their content often skips or repeats topics out of sequence.
GradeUp’s solution:
Our content is fully aligned with both CAPS (DBE) and IEB standards, and sequenced by term and grade, so your child learns exactly what’s needed — when it’s needed.
How can I track my child’s progress and know if they’re improving?
Without insight, it’s difficult to know where your child is excelling or falling behind.
GradeUp’s solution:
We send automated progress reports to your email, showing you every skill your child has completed, you can follow along easily.
Can you guarantee my child’s marks will improve like other apps claim?
No platform can promise exact mark increases, every child is different. But consistent, guided practice leads to real improvement.
GradeUp’s solution:
We offer video memos for every question, concept tutorials, and exam prep tools. Giving your child the right support to improve with regular use.
