Magma Maths, the maths platform where pupils write their working by hand and teachers see how the class is thinking during the lesson, has been named a finalist in seven categories at the Bett Awards 2027. The finalists were announced on 6 November, and the winners will be named at the ceremony at the InterContinental London on 20 January 2027.

It follows a busy year for Magma. The company launched in Germany and Poland and grew in the UK, the US, Canada and the United Arab Emirates. It added to its evidence base with a third-party ESSA Level II study and observational studies in several countries, including the US, Sweden and the UK. And Magma kept improving throughout the year, with much of the development shaped by what teachers and school leaders asked for.

The seven categories

• Company of the Year
• Transformational Impact
• Bett Innovation Award
• AI in Education: Workload Reduction
• SEND and Inclusion Resources & Services
• Primary Digital Learning Product: Numeracy & Maths
• International Digital Educational Resource (non-UK curriculum)

Henrik Appert, CEO and co-founder of Magma Maths, said:

"Being named a finalist in seven categories makes me very proud. Each of the seven comes from a team that has worked with real passion over the past year, including colleagues who have built Magma up in countries where we were only just getting started. It also comes from the teachers and school leaders we work with. Their feedback has shaped how Magma has developed this year, and many of the improvements we've made began as a conversation in one of their classrooms, so the credit belongs to our partners as much as to us. Thank you to Bett and BESA for the recognition, and congratulations to all the other finalists."

Last year's wins

Magma Maths won two Bett Awards in January 2026, in Primary Digital Learning Product: Numeracy & Maths and International Digital Educational Resource. It is a finalist in both categories again this year.

About Magma Maths

Magma Maths is an online maths platform for schools from Reception through GCSE. Pupils show their working on each task, and teachers see in real time how pupils are reasoning, not just whether their answers are right, so they can adapt their teaching in the moment. Aligned to the national curriculum in England, the Curriculum for Wales and Scotland's Curriculum for Excellence, the platform offers a library of more than a million problems across multiple difficulty levels, supports formative assessment and enables personalised practice for every pupil. Magma was founded in Sweden in 2015 with a clear aim: to raise attainment in maths by giving teachers, school leaders and local authorities better insight into how pupils learn. Today it works with schools, trusts, local authorities and districts in eight countries: Sweden, the UK, Ireland, Germany, Poland, the United States, Canada and the United Arab Emirates. Magma Maths is operated by Radish Education UK Ltd and is part of the wider Magma group.
