Scientifically-proven learning strategies for GCSE science students

Our mission is to enable all students to replicate the learning strategies of the most successful. Decades of scientific research have shown that successive relearning is the most effective strategy for building durable learning; particularly if students practise using a consistent test format (questions that are similar to the ones they will face in their final exam). 

GCSE Prepper is unique in offering both elements of the optimal learning strategy, and provides students with detailed, tailored feedback immediately after every attempt; a solution that maximises the impact of any student effort. 

Teachers benefit from a significantly reduced workload as marking is eliminated and there is a dramatic reduction in time spent setting homework. They can also access intuitive reports to aid with improving student motivation and lesson planning.

Maximise the return from revision time

GCSEPrepper helps students employ the revision techniques that scientists have proven to be the most effective.

Powerful, intuitive reporting tool that provides everything teachers need to monitor, and motivate, students; plus class strengths and weaknesses that can be used to guide lesson planning.

Structured to match specification

Massive question bank of relevant questions organised according to the structure used by the specific Exam Board for the specific subject and qualification.

GCSE exam-style questions

Replicating all the question styles that students will face in their GCSE (up to, and including, 6-markers); with marking that mirrors that of the exam boards.

Wide range of Boards/ Subjects covered

Covering physics, chemistry and biology for AQA and Edexcel; and Physical Education (PE) and Computer Science for AQA.

GCSEPrepper – great for students, teachers, headteachers and parents!

More effective revision leads to a better understanding of the subject and BETTER GRADES; the main goal of all interested parties.

Teachers also get to reduce the time they have to spend on repetitive marking tasks; the kind of tasks that computers love. This time can be redeployed more usefully analysing GCSE Prepper reports; for example:

  • Scatter graphs of performance vs effort can be used to help students understand the relationship between the two – in order to improve student motivation
  • Aggregated class performance reports that highlights collective strengths and weaknesses as input to lesson planning

Everybody benefits from the increased visibility on progress – so that any interventions can be early and focused.

Set homework in seconds with our intuitive test-setting wizard 

Questions are organised in accordance with the structure of each Exam Board and subject; making it quick and easy to set tasks for each class (or stream within a class).

They can even be scheduled in advance so that you can plan weeks ahead if you like to work this way.

You’ll also receive clear information on how long students spent on the assignment, how long they spent reviewing their feedback after it was marked, and whether there were particular questions that the class found particularly difficult.

The optimal experience for students / less time spent marking for teachers

Our mission is to enable students to use the learning experience that research shows is most effective at delivering durable learning – whilst simultaneously minimising teacher workload 

Students can practise answering the full range of question styles they will face in their exams (including 6-markers). We also provide students with detailed feedback after every attempt – tailored to their answer.
