When teaching in a school in the UK, I found most of the small tools I needed online wanted my email, or displayed a lot of ads (sometimes both!)
So, I started making my own resources. They're free and work in any browser.
If you have any suggestions for new tools, let me know at [email protected].
A fullscreen countdown for exam conditions. Logs extra time and rest breaks. Large, plain and readable from the back of the classroom.
Drop in a class list, run a league table and/or a knockout competition. Works for competitions or end-of-term quizzes.
A fullscreen board for exam halls running several papers at once. Each subject gets its own panel showing end times for normal and extra time groups.
Enter raw marks and grade boundaries, get a full percentage table, box plot and grade distribution. Works for any exam board or in-house assessment.
Build a colour-coded weekly timetable in minutes. Supports multiple weeks, day and week views, and exports to a print-ready layout.
Paste a class list and pick a student at random. Fair mode works through everyone before repeating. Second tab splits the class into randomised groups.
Chunk a lesson into starter, main and plenary with visible countdowns. Project once, ignore for the rest of the hour.
Sketch a room, drop in names, get a printable plan. Editable in a couple of minutes rather than a free period.
Countdown, stopwatch and live clock in one tool. Digital and analogue displays, fullscreen mode, lap tracking, and colour warnings when time is nearly up.
There are no ads, no accounts and no premium tier. If something here saved you time, a one-off tip on Ko-fi keeps the domain renewed and the next tool moving.
