vs flashcards from a textbook
Spaced repetition, not a Tuesday-night cram
Cards come back the day before your brain would forget them. Cramming the night before gets you 20% retention a week later. This gets you 80%.
GCSE & KS3 daily practice · 12 subjects · every board
Three minutes a day.Knowledge that sticks.
Tight daily-habit revision built around the actual spec. Three-second cards. Spaced repetition that makes it stay. Twelve subjects across GCSE and KS3, every board.
Tight loop
≤4-word answers. ≤3 seconds per card. No essays, no menus, no nonsense.
Daily streak
One short session keeps the chain alive. Built like the apps your students already won't put down.
Built by teachers
Every card is the kind of thing a real examiner asks. Not what an AI guessed they might.
Subjects
Pick your subject.
Every card written for the spec. Every board covered.
Why it works
Why three minutes beats a Tuesday-night cram.
vs Quizlet's crowd-sourced sets
Every card written for the spec
Not a sea of decks of varying quality. Every card is mapped to the actual board content lists, tier-flagged, and reviewed against past Examiners' Reports.
vs an hour-long Seneca session
Three minutes wins because it gets done
The session is short enough to do every day. The streak is sticky enough to make them want to. That's the whole game: habit beats heroics.
vs a paper mock and a sigh
Predicted grade you can move
Each student sees a Foundation 1-5 or Higher 4-9 band based on their actual mastery and accuracy, plus a clear next-grade-up target tied to their streak.
Built differently
What we do that the others don't.
The features below don't exist on TTRS, Duolingo, Seneca, Kahoot, or Quizlet.
Misconception heatmap
Per-card view of the top wrong answer the class is picking. Reteach the actual confusion, not just 'this one was tricky'.
Per-subject rank ladder
Six-tier rank earned from XP: Apprentice → Master Chef for Food, Trainee → Master Historian for History, etc. Each subject has its own progression.
Themes that students earn
Seasonal palettes unlocked by XP. Kids personalise the app the way they'd personalise a Roblox lobby, except the unlock is GCSE practice.
Predicted grade band
Foundation 1-5 or Higher 4-9, weighted 70% mastery + 30% accuracy. Updates live. For students it shows the next grade up: a target, not a verdict.
Live in-class sessions
Start a live round from the front of the class. Students get a dashboard banner and join in a tap. Pick the topics and length, then watch the leaderboard move in real time and end when you're ready.
Multi-board content audit
Every card's coverage flagged across all relevant exam boards. Teachers see exactly which cards apply to their spec.
