SPAG Buddy

Teacher dashboard for schools

See which SPaG objectives your class has secured, and which they haven’t.

Pupils practise KS2 spelling, punctuation and grammar on iPad. You see every answer gathered into one class view, so you know what to teach next before the SATs.

For Years 3 to 6, mapped to the KS2 national curriculum.

Up and running in one lesson

  1. Set up your class

    Create your class online and print a login card for each pupil. Pupils don’t need an email address or an Apple ID.

  2. Pupils practise on iPad

    Each pupil enters the code on their card to join, then works through short quizzes with instant feedback on every answer.

  3. You see the gaps

    Answers flow into your class heat map. Set a follow-up quiz on the objectives that need another go.

What you see as the teacher

Everything sits behind your own sign-in, and you only ever see your own classes.

Built for pupil data from the start

Your school decides what goes in. We keep it to the minimum a teacher needs to teach SPaG well.
