Third Space Learning

What is Third Space Learning?

Third Space Learning provides Skye, a spoken AI maths tutor sold to schools. Skye talks pupils through problems rather than only generating questions, and its lessons are structured, teacher-created lesson plans aligned to the national curriculum. The company was a provider in the UK National Tutoring Programme and now delivers its maths tutoring through the AI tutor.

Key capabilities of Third Space Learning

• Spoken tutoring: Pupils speak with the tutor as in one-to-one lessons.
• Curriculum-aligned lessons: Lesson plans for primary and secondary maths.
• Progress reports: Reports on pupil progress for teachers.
• School dashboards: Overview for leaders and administrators.
• Free taster: A trial session to see Skye in action.

How Third Space Learning works

Skye follows structured lesson plans written by maths teachers and guides pupils through problems by voice. The vendor says it does not generate its own content. Teachers and leaders see progress through reports and dashboards.

Who uses Third Space Learning?

Primary schools (Years 3 to 6) and secondary schools (Year 7 and GCSE) in the UK, plus US schools and districts. Administrators and multi-academy trusts buy for whole schools.

Third Space Learning pricing

Third Space sells Skye on a yearly school licence. The vendor's UK pages list pricing from about 3,500 pounds a year for primary and 5,000 pounds for secondary, depending on school size, and US pricing differs. Trust pricing is quoted on request.
