Everything your team needs to get a Year 6 class up and running on SATs Goals! — from sign-up to daily classroom use.

Quick start in 5 minutes

1

Register your school

Go to Sign Up, choose School, and enter your school name and a teacher email. No card needed.

2

Set your Teacher PIN

From the Teacher Dashboard, set a 4-digit PIN. This protects settings and reports on shared devices.

3

Bulk add pupils

In the Pupils tab, paste your class list (one pupil per line, optional class name after a comma). All profiles created instantly.

4

Open on a shared device

Pupils select their name from the home screen. No pupil logins, no passwords for children.

5

Track from the dashboard

Watch live progress, leaderboards and per-topic scores as pupils complete quizzes.

Accounts & access

🏫

School account

One login per school. Use a shared staff email (e.g. [email protected]) so any teacher can sign in.

🔐

Teacher PIN

A 4-digit PIN protects the Teacher Dashboard on shared classroom devices. Pupils see only the quiz interface.

👩‍🎓

Pupil profiles

Pupils have a first-name profile only — no email, no password. GDPR-friendly: no personal data is ever collected from children.

🏷️

Classes

Tag each pupil with a class name (e.g. 6A, 6B). Filter all reports and leaderboards by class.

Adding pupils

From the Teacher Dashboard, open the Pupils tab. You can:

  • Add one pupil — type the name and (optionally) the class.
  • Bulk add — paste a list, one pupil per line. To set the class, add a comma after the name.
  • Rename a pupil at any time without losing their progress.
  • Move a pupil to a different class with one click.
  • Remove a pupil when they leave (their data is anonymised on deletion).

Bulk-add example:

Alice, 6A
Ben, 6A
Charlie, 6A
Daisy, 6B
Ethan, 6B

Daily classroom use

Starter activity

Run a 2-minute Speed Round at the start of the lesson — perfect for arithmetic warm-ups or fronted-adverbial drills.

🎯

Targeted topic

Select a single topic (e.g. Fractions) for whole-class focus, or let pupils pick their weakest area.

🔁

Wrong-answer retry

Every wrong answer is stored and re-served in future sessions until the pupil gets it right.

🏆

Leaderboards

Show the class leaderboard on the whiteboard at the end of each session — XP, stars, accuracy and streaks.

📊

Reports

Open any pupil's report from the dashboard for per-topic best scores, recent quiz history and trend.

🏠

Homework

Pupils can carry on at home — share the school login or use parent accounts where needed.
