Most Helpful Reviews

Learning By Questions

Eilish Hanworth, Class Teacher: Just brilliant - children and teachers love it and the results are evident.
Mark Stephenson, STEM Lead and Y3 Teacher: Such a great resource to use. Thousands of question sets at the click of a button that our children from Y1-Y6 love using.
John Coombs, Teacher/ Maths Coordinator: The use of Learning by Questions has changed my teaching, changed the attitude towards learning of my pupils, has significantly helped to reduce the time I spend as a teacher planning and marking and most importantly has had a positive impact on the attainment of all the pupils that use it.

Charlotte Howell, Deputy Head of Senior English: I just think it is such a useful tool that benefits both pupils and teachers. Why wouldn't anyone want that?
Corrin, Teacher: I think I have explained. It’s time consuming, and doesn’t benefit our less able students. Our more able students might benefit but if they do it only widens a gap. That’s bad in education.
Charmain Hull, Second in English (KS3): 10 would have been given if it had the function of printing of data reports easily, and being able to share data with parents mor efficently. However, this is a superb programme that enable stsudents to develop their literacy skills and can be used in order to differentiate according to the their ability and what they need to improve on. I also love the fact that they can be set missions again and again and this can show how far they have improved on that mission.

Getting started with LbQ is a relaxed session, held every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, where we walk you through the platform and show you how to run a Question Set with your class. Feel free to ask questions - that's what we're all about.

If you have been running LbQ in your classroom, saving yourself valuable time and seeing your pupils rocket, then you might want to step things up with our 'Beyond the Basics' course.

These sessions are held every other Monday and involve tailoring LbQ to your class and advanced interventions (not as scary as it sounds!). This is an informal session where we hope you will join in and have a chat with us. 'Beyond the Basics' also acts as a clinic, so if you have any questions then please book on and we'll give you all the assistance you need.
