For schools
The class view, built the way teachers mark
Not a leaderboard. For each student: where they are, what they've proved, what needs support, and the one thing to set next.
In development
PreviewSchool accounts, class lists and teacher logins are being built. The summary below is real — it's generated from a live learning record, so you can see exactly what a teacher would receive for each student.

Who sees what
Access is decided by role, and written down deliberately. A teacher sees what helps them teach; nothing more.
Student
Everything about their own learning.
Can see: Everything in their own record.
Parent or carer
Their own child's Ladder Level, rungs, recent activity and next step.
Can see: Ladder Level, Rungs, Recent activity, Target grade, Next step.
Never sees: Other students' records, Tutor message content beyond their own child.
Teacher
Progress summaries for the students in their class, and what to set next.
Can see: Ladder Level, Rungs achieved, Skills developing, Skills needing support, Recent activity, Approximate practice level, Target grade, Recommended next step.
Never sees: Contact details, Anything a student wrote in About Me that they marked private, Records for students outside their classes.
School or trust
Class and cohort summaries. No individual written work.

Never sees: Individual written responses, Personal details.
What a school gets access to
- • 16 Paper 1 extracts, all written for LADDER
- • 34 Paper 1 questions across every skill
- • 14 Paper 2 non-fiction sources, paired for comparison
- • 19 Paper 2 questions
- • 14 transactional writing scenarios
- • 53 sentence-level parsing activities
- • 52 Literature activities across the set texts
Students never see the same question twice while fresh material remains, so a class can practise the same skill without sharing answers.
