From handwriting to headline grade
Pupils don't always write on a screen — and they shouldn't have to. WriteCheck reads real handwriting from a quick photo or a scanned PDF, then levels it against the statutory criteria for the year group. You get the grade, the evidence and the next steps together.
- Reads handwriting, photos and PDFs
- Levelled against the correct year-group framework
- Evidence-based rationale you can share at moderation
- Next-step targets that feed straight into your planning
What teachers say about WriteCheck
WriteCheck has given me back my evenings. What used to be a stack of books and a couple of hours now takes a few minutes, and the next-step targets are genuinely useful in class.
The criteria-led grading is so consistent. It gives me a reliable baseline to build on, and I still make the final call. It's like having a second pair of eyes for moderation.
My staff love it. Being able to snap a photo and get an instant levelled assessment has completely changed how we prepare for moderation meetings across the school.
Built to complement your expertise
WriteCheck is a tool, not a replacement for a teacher. The AI gives you a consistent, evidence-based starting point — but you remain the assessor. The professional judgement is always yours.
