Your students plan their work in five different places. Or nowhere at all.
Paper planners, phone notes, group chats, memory, and hope. Lock In replaces all of it with one system your whole school can see.
Sound familiar?
Planners nobody fills in
The school buys planners in September. By November they're doodle pads, and homework lives in screenshots of the board.
Zero visibility after 3pm
You know what was set. You have no idea what was planned, started, or finished until the deadline has already passed.
Deadline pileups
Five departments set work independently, and the same students hit an impossible Thursday every other week.
Parents in the dark
"How is she doing?" deserves a better answer than the last report card and a guess.
What schools get with Lock In
One platform that covers the whole chain: work is set, work is planned, work gets done, and you can see all three.
One system, every year group
- Teachers set assignments once; they appear on every enrolled student's timetable
- The planner blocks out real time to do the work before the deadline
- Exam board specifications are built in, so revision follows the actual syllabus
- Students keep one calendar for school work, clubs, and life
Visibility for leaders, without surveillance
- A console with the numbers that matter: completion, workload, momentum
- Per-class performance so heads of department see their own picture
- An at-risk list that surfaces students before the pattern becomes a grade
- Progress data, not screen spying: what was planned and what got done
Setup measured in days, not terms
- Add staff and students by email list or shareable invite links
- Classes provision themselves: pick the exam spec, enroll the roster, done
- Students and parents never pay; schools pay per staff seat
- We onboard your first classes with you, live
What educators are saying
Placeholder quotes. Your pilot feedback goes here.
"I used to find out who was behind at data entry time. Now I find out on Friday, while there's still something I can do about it."
"The surprise wasn't the tracking. It was students walking in having actually planned their week."
"Setup took one afternoon. The email list went in, the classes appeared, and we were running by Monday."
It usually starts with one year group
You don't need a whole-school rollout to find out if this works. You need one exam cohort and one term.
Pilot with one year group
Pick an exam year. We set up staff, students, and classes with you in the first week.
Measure what matters
Watch completion, planned hours, and the at-risk list through the term. Compare it with what you knew before, which was mostly nothing.
Expand school-wide
Roll out year group by year group with the setup patterns that already worked.
Built for the people who carry the load
Heads and deputy heads
One honest picture of independent study across the school, without asking anyone to compile it.
Heads of year
An at-risk list that names students while intervention is still cheap.
Heads of department
Per-class completion and workload, so conversations with staff start from data.
Subject teachers
Set work in seconds and stop re-explaining deadlines. The timetable does the nagging.
Form tutors
A five-minute Monday check-in on each tutee's week, based on what's actually planned.
Exam officers
Revision plans anchored to the real specification, for every board you run.
