Coursework

Scaffolded project stages, with sequential unlocking

  • Each stage carries its own instructions
  • A stage opens only when the last one is done, so nothing gets skipped
  • The teacher is supervising at every stage
  • One brief carries a mixed-ability class, every student at their own pace
For the Leaving Cert

Ready-made assignment guidelines to help a student through their AAC

Assignments, rubrics and comment banks are built in by subject and follow the SEC guidelines for each one, so no teacher in your school is starting from scratch.

Highlight-and-click feedback

  • Mark up a student’s work on screen
  • Drop in a comment from your bank in one click
  • The comment sits against the sentence it is about
  • The student’s own document is left alone

One-click authentication records

  • A per-student PDF: their submissions at each stage, the feedback and the rubric grades
  • Their AI-use declaration with it
  • To support Form P.2
  • One student, or the whole class in a single zip

Get started

Teacher

Create classes, set assignments, and give feedback. Free on your own; real classes need your school’s trial.

Student

Join classes, submit work, and see feedback.

New here? Ask your teacher for their class join link — that's how student accounts get created.

How it works

  1. Sign the agreement

    An authorised representative of the school accepts the data processing agreement. That opens a free 30-day trial — no card, nothing to cancel.

  2. Teachers set the work

    From a ready-made template or their own, using the department’s rubrics and comment banks. Anything a teacher built on a free account before this comes straight across.

  3. Students join

    They join with their teacher’s class link. That creates their account and adds them to the class in one step.

  4. Pilot it for the school year

    At the end of the thirty days, carry on for 2026/27 at the pilot rate. Everything already in it stays where it is.

Questions a school asks

Is this a school management system?

No. It is not here to replace your school management system — attendance, timetables and reports stay where they are.

What it does is standardise coursework across the school: the same stages, the same rubrics and the same authentication record in every subject, instead of every teacher working it out on their own.

Are there templates for every subject?

Ready-made project templates, rubrics and comment banks follow the SEC guidelines, and are built in by tranche.

Tranche 1: there is a staged project template for the 2027 brief and the SEC sample brief, along with accompanying rubrics and a comment bank.

Tranche 2: each subject so far has a staged project template built from its SEC sample brief, with its rubrics and comment bank. The live brief is added alongside once it is published.

For any other subject, a teacher builds their own stages, rubrics and comment bank — and can share them with colleagues in the same school.

Can I edit the templates?

Yes. Using a template gives you your own copy to change however you like — stages, instructions, rubrics and attached files.

Can I use my own rubrics and comments?

Yes. You can write your own, or take a copy of a colleague’s or a built-in one and edit it. Your comment bank adds feedback to a student’s work in one click.

Can two teachers share a class?

Yes, a teacher can add a co-teacher from the same school. Both can plan and mark.

What can students hand up?

PDF and Word (.docx) files, or typed answers. A stage can also ask for up to 10 photos and a video link, for work like models, PE or Drama. Students can pick files from OneDrive or Google Drive as well as their computer.

Can we set up our own TY credit scheme?

Yes. The coordinator builds the scheme to suit the school, and it totals automatically.

Can colleagues help run a TY year group?

Yes. The coordinator can turn on a join link for staff in the same school.

What does the TY portfolio include?

Reflections, goals, certificates and a work experience diary, with photos, audio, video and documents collected as the work happens. A student who wrote something on paper or in Word can upload it instead, with a short note on what it is.

Can a coordinator see the portfolio as a student does?

Yes. “Try it as a student” opens a practice student account in your own year group or cohort. It shows the same screens a student sees, without opening any real student’s account.

What do LCW students write?

Entries in their portfolio across fifth and sixth year, and the four Applied Learning Tasks, written in an editor with formatting and downloadable as a Word file. Each draft is kept, so growth over time is visible, and sources are written out as references.

Can a student resubmit after moving on to the next stage?

Yes. Handing up a stage opens the next one, but it does not close the one before. A student can go back and replace their work whenever they need to.

The earlier version is kept, with any feedback already given on it, so the teacher can see what changed and what was there when they marked it.

What happens at the end of the year?

Closing a year group happens in four steps.

Writing stops. Students are emailed, and get a window to download their own copy — including anything they kept private. Then a grace period, where nothing has been deleted yet. Then the year group is destroyed.

Nothing is ever destroyed automatically. Destroying a year group has to be typed out by name, and is refused until its credit table has been downloaded.

How do students get accounts?

From their teacher’s class join link.

Does our school’s IT administrator need to do anything?

Just a once-off permission for handing up files from OneDrive or Google Drive. The steps are here: allowing cloud uploads.

Can a teacher try it before the school signs anything?

Yes. A teacher can build everything on a free account — rubrics, comment banks, project templates, projects and assignments — and practise marking on a demo submission before any student is involved.

Real classes need the school’s 30-day trial, which opens when an authorised representative accepts the agreement. Everything a teacher built first carries straight over when they do.

Coursework authentication

Assignments that lock in stages, AI-use declarations and a downloadable authentication record for each student help your colleagues be confident they have met the authentication standards required to sign Form P.2 for AAC submissions.

Our free Code of Practice is ready for your school to adopt, streamlining AAC's across every subject from the outset.
