In this webinar, Education Adviser Bonnie Burridge will discuss how Doddle can reduce the workload burden associated with marking and planning in your school.

Teacher workload has never been higher on the agenda for schools and academies, as well as more recently for Ofsted. At the same time, the new GCSE specifications challenge every department to deliver more difficult content. The question facing school leaders is: how do we ensure demands on teaching staff are manageable, without compromising students’ academic success?

Planning: The new GCSE specifications have put an increasing strain on teachers, not only to meet the increased difficulty of exams, but also to source quality teaching materials to cover the new topics. This 'intolerable' burden of resourcing means that the average teacher in England now spends 9 hours a week planning lessons, but does this translate into the most effective teaching? Boardworks created Doddle to relieve the strain of searching for or creating teaching materials by providing thousands of curriculum specific, interactive resources for teachers to use and assign at just the click of a button.

Marking: Gaining insight into what students do and don't know is vital to ensuring they can make progress, but are your teachers spending so long gathering data that they aren't left time to use it effectively? Doddle helps schools cut out unnecessary marking workload with thousands of engaging, self-marking quizzes and enables targeted intervention through an online markbook providing an instant breakdown of results with question level analysis. Whether you want to implement low-stakes testing or revolutionise your homework process, Doddle reduces marking workload while providing a clear insight into student comprehension.
