Learning by Questions
Be the teacher you always wanted to be.
Learning by Questions (LbQ) is a classroom app filled with curriculum aligned Question Sets and immediate pupil feedback to super charge learning. LbQ is used by schools to provide in school and Remote Learning. LbQ reduces teacher workloads with automatic marking and real-time lesson reports to verify learning as it happens. LbQ covers KS2 maths, English and science plus KS3 and KS4 maths, English, chemistry, physics and biology.
Teachers use LbQ’s live data to pinpoint where intervention is needed and why. Pupils use devices such as tablets, to progress through scaffolded Question Sets at their own pace and receive immediate feedback as they answer. Teachers receive live analysis and results are automatically recorded to support assessment, planning and save time.
Even if a classroom doesn’t have devices, teachers can open a FREE LbQ account to access more than 80,000 high-quality questions (growing at 3,000 per month) to use on their classroom displays.
Funded and owned by the Bowland Charitable Trust and led by the founder of Promethean Tony Cann CBE, the team behind Learning by Questions has an established reputation for changing classrooms around the world. Independent testing of the programme by the Institute for Effective Education confirms that using LbQ could provide an additional term’s progress over a school year.
A LbQ free account provides ongoing access to all 80,000 high-quality maths, English and science teaching questions with feedback for us on your classroom display as part of lessons.
You also receive a 30 day free trial of the full system so you can connect pupil devices such as tablets to enable self paced learning during lessons with automatic feedback, marking and real-time lesson analysis for teachers.
Schools can subscribe any number of teachers for £250 each teacher per year for access to everything, all years and all subjects.
Classroom sets of tablets are available for £1,483 per year for 3 years including 32 HD Pupil tablets, 1 HD teacher tablet, tablet covers, pre installed LbQ App, lockable storage and charging cabinet, and 3 years advanced replacement warranty.

During any enforced home working situations e.g. Covid-19 virus outbreak, teachers will find LbQ is very helpful to remotely engage learners during the day. Teachers can ‘Start’ LbQ tasks for the learners to work through and receive instant feedback to support learning and build fluency and confidence. All pupils will be able to log in from home using www.lbq.org/task and enter the day’s session code issued by their teacher.

Therefore if you have pupil devices such as computers or tablets, you will also benefit from the automatic pupil feedback, automatic marking and real-time lesson analysis to help teachers intervene effectively where help is needed.
At the end of the 30 day trial of the full account your account will continue on as a free account with access to the questions for teaching front of class.

I have been using LBQ for more than a year and myself and my students could not think of a maths lesson without Learning by Questions.
Easy to use, loads of resources, very engaging and challenging and most important of all, NO MARKING!
