How to use Qwixl: teachers, students, parents & SENCOs

Teachers

Set up your account, create a class, share the join code, and start creating and publishing assignments.

  1. Create your account (choose Teacher when you register).
  2. Add a class: give it a name, subject, and year group. You'll get a unique join code.
  3. Share the join code with your students so they can register and join the class.
  4. Create an assignment: add questions, set marking criteria (text or upload a document), and choose the class.
  5. Publish the assignment when you're ready. Students will see it and can complete and submit.
  6. View submissions, run marking, and see feedback and insights - including early signals for learners who may need extra support.

Students

Join your teacher's class with a join code, complete assignments, and see your feedback and progress.

  1. Create your account (choose Student when you register).
  2. Get the join code from your teacher and enter it on your dashboard to join their class.
  3. If you're in a year group that requires it, a parent or guardian will need to approve your account via the link we send them.
  4. Open an assignment from your dashboard, complete your answers in the editor, and save. Submit when you're done.
  5. After your teacher has marked your work, you'll see your grades and feedback. Use the tutor and practice activities to improve.

Parents & families

Link to your child's account and see their progress, assignments, and feedback in one place.

  1. Create your account (choose Parent when you register).
  2. Link to your child: they can send you an invite link from their Qwixl dashboard, or you may receive a consent link if they're under 13 or in a year group that requires consent.
  3. Once linked, you'll see their progress, assignments, and feedback on your dashboard.
  4. You can approve privacy for each linked child so their data is visible to you in line with your school's approach.

SENCOs

Get linked by teachers at your school, then access their students and run analysis and reports.

  1. Create your account (choose SENCO when you register).
  2. Teachers at your school can link you: they enter your email in Account → SENCO links and send you an invite.
  3. Accept the invite (via the link in the email or in-app notification) to connect your account to that teacher.
  4. From your SENCO dashboard you'll see linked teachers and their students. Run analysis and export reports when you need them.
