How it works

The loop that makes adaptive teaching possible

Until now, teachers have had to understand student development through snapshots. WhitePear builds a continuous picture instead: every piece of writing shows what students need next, and whether your response worked.

  1. 01

    Students write more, and every piece becomes evidence

    Students write on paper or online, as often as you like, far more than any teacher could read. WhitePear analyses each piece against your criteria, so you know what each student can do and what they need next.

  2. 02

    Evidence becomes a picture of your class

    Individual evidence adds up to class insight: shared gaps, strengths, and groups of students who need intervention, consolidation or stretch, so you can decide what to teach next.

  3. 03

    Teach, practise again, and see what changed

    Respond to what your students need, then let them write again. WhitePear builds the picture over time, showing what is improving, what keeps recurring, and whether your teaching worked.

Student development

Know what each student needs next

WhitePear builds a continuous development profile from each student’s writing, showing how their skills are developing, what needs keep recurring, and where to intervene, consolidate or stretch.

  • Skill-by-skill progress across every piece of writing
  • Recurring needs surfaced over time
  • Evidence of whether your response changed what happened next

For departments and senior leaders

Build a learning profile for every student

Every piece of writing adds to a continuous picture of what each student can do and what they need next — across subjects, teachers, classes and year groups.

  • The same skills in every class

    Shared criteria mean a skill status says the same thing whoever teaches the group, so teachers and leaders are reading one picture.

  • Development that follows the student

    Strengths, gaps and progress carry across teachers, classes and years, without hardening into a label.

  • Patterns across cohorts

    See which skills are secure and which are stuck across classes, year groups and the department, early enough to act.

  • Teachers exercise their judgement

    WhitePear surfaces the evidence. Teachers decide what it means, what students need next and how to respond.

What schools see when writing becomes visible

“By the time I’d marked a full set, we’d already moved on. Now I can see much faster where students are getting stuck, so I know what to go back over in class.”
SBSharon B.Class teacher, English
“Before, we’d only really know how students were doing at mock points. Now we have a much clearer picture of where different classes are, without waiting for results.”
RCRuth C.Assistant headteacher
