Great for Students

High quality, personalised feedback helps students understand and take ownership of their own progress and what they need to do to improve. At-a-glance reporting reveals strengths and weaknesses.

Great for Teachers

Mark complex, open-ended work faster and more consistently. Access meaningful formative progress data in real time without any data entry. Organise and manage complex mark schemes.

Great for Schools

Understand the progress of key groups against specific assessment objectives, and measure the impact of interventions in real time. Lift the burden of data entry from the shoulders of your staff.

    I would just like to say a huge thank you for revolutionising the way we work! We started using Smart Rubric this academic year and have not looked back. It is so easy to use, so quick and the feedback students get is incredibly detailed. Mark books are readily available for transferring to reports and for use at parents evening. We will definitely be continuing our subscription for many years to come.

    Smart Rubric provides us with a simple, streamlined and powerful tool to assess students and provide quality feedback. I love how much time it has already saved me in marking - I can sail through a whole class assessment which would have taken me a few hours to mark in under an hour.
      Once you have established a few rubrics, it is simplicity itself to adapt them for different classes or assignments.

The Maker-Mindset is a powerful catalyst for learning. Here's how to foster it in your students.

Most teachers have probably come across occasional student who is a maker. There was a girl in my year 8 English class who made the most adorable jewellery out of tiny, perfect, sculpted baked goods and sweets ('Get thee to Etsy!' I may or may not have cried, 'get thee to Etsy!).

Stress-busting Exam Revision Game

Exam season is in full swing, so you are probably seeing a lot of zombified students in your lessons. They usually come in two flavours -- dead-eyed nihilists, and panicky zealots who want copies of every past paper that's ever happened and for you to mark their unsolicited work.

It's exam prep season, which means that sadly, KS3 probably isn't getting much love at the moment. To rectify this, I'm going to share a couple of really easy English Speaking and Listening lesson formats that take approximately zero planning and work from years 7-9, plus a couple of downloadable rubrics to make sure that you're evidencing progress.

How to increase the impact of your marking this exam prep season

If you teach KS4 and KS5, you are probably in the midst of some pretty serious exam preparation. For many of you, that means practice papers. Lots of them. And if you happen to teach a subject like English, that means a lot of extended essay questions to mark.
