DoodleLearning is a highly engaging software that creates personalised work programmes in maths and English to plug children's learning gaps and consolidate knowledge.

Doodle is proven to raise attainment, boost children's confidence, and promote a genuine love of learning. The extensive data generated provides evidence for teaching sequences and quickly shows what is working well and what needs to be improved.

DoodleAdapt automatically revises tricky topics and consolidates knowledge by regularly revisiting concepts, scaffolding learning, preventing learning loss, and taking drill and practice off teachers' hands.

This allows them to spend their time covering new content rather than revising topics they’ve already taught, letting them focus on delivering quality first teaching.

Ways Doodle Learning can help your school

Doodle reduces teacher workload by setting each child a personalised work programme that plugs their learning gaps and consolidates knowledge, reducing teacher workload and preventing learning loss.

Doodle marks each child’s work and tracks their progress, creating instantly exportable data for reports and Pupil Progress Meetings

It rewards effort over ability, enabling all pupils to work independently and experience ongoing success.

Every question and explanation has been crafted to suit all types of learner, with accessibility features, like audio-dictation and coloured overlays, to further support pupils.

Doodle is quick and easy to launch, providing all the resources you need, including letters to parents and support for staff, so teachers don’t need to do a thing.
