Marking & feedback for UK secondary teachers
Intelligent feedback at the speed of the classroom
gradIQual turns a class set of student work into specific, curriculum-aligned feedback and whole-class insights — fast enough to keep up with real classroom life, and always with you in control.
You read, tweak, and decide. gradIQual does the first heavy pass so you can spend your time teaching.
gradIQual is in limited beta — request access with your school email.
Why teachers use gradIQual
Speed
Mark a whole class set in the time it used to take to mark a handful.
Control
Nothing reaches a student until you read, edit, and approve it.
Simplicity
Bring in Google Classroom, or upload work directly. One clear path.
Privacy
Data minimisation on by default, with a security model built to be signed off.
Quality
Specific, developmental feedback — next steps, not generic praise.
How it works
From a pile of work to reviewed feedback, in three steps
Bring in the work
Connect Google Classroom and pick an assignment, or upload files straight into gradIQual.
Set the context and start marking
A short wizard confirms what you're marking and how. gradIQual drafts feedback for every student.
Review and publish
Read the drafts, adjust anything you'd word differently, then return feedback to students.
What's inside
It fits the way you already teach
gradIQual sits right inside Google Classroom — or works on its own — and there's a built-in helper to do the fiddly bits with you. No new system to learn.
Your classes, already there
Connect once and your classes and pupils come straight in. Mark the work they handed in, then send feedback and grades back to Classroom — where students already look. It even keeps your classes up to date on its own, so there's nothing to re-import.
See the Google Classroom integration →Built-in helperA helper that knows its way around
Ask it to start marking, check on a job, or explain how something works — and it does it with you, asking before it changes anything. It's there once you're signed in.
Meet the in-app helper →Mark work from anywhere
No Classroom? Drag in essays, scans, or photos of handwritten work — gradIQual reads them all.
Intelli-Mark upload →Mark the way the task needs
Everyday feedback for homework and classwork, or marks against a paper for assessment-style tasks.
Marking modes →Specific feedback, fast
Every pupil gets feedback grounded in their actual work — named strengths and clear next steps, not vague praise.
Feedback marking →Return it however suits you
Send to Classroom, download, save to Drive, or email — clean, readable documents, your choice each time.

Optionally, build on what a pupil did before — recognising progress and the things that keep coming up.

A whole-class picture, not just a returned pile
Alongside individual feedback, gradIQual pulls out the patterns across the set — the common strengths, the areas to focus on next, and the misconceptions that came up — so you finish marking knowing what to teach next.

You stay in control of every piece of feedback. Data minimisation is on by default, and we're clear about exactly what we access and why — see our security and data protection page.
Simple pricing
Free to start. Go Pro when you're ready.
When we open up, Free will give you one class set a week and one assessment paper to try. Pro will be £14.99/month or £119/year — unlimited homework and classwork marking, plus six assessment papers a year. gradIQual is in limited beta for now — request access with your school email.
Built around real classroom work
gradIQual marks the everyday work that fills a teacher's week — homework, classwork, quizzes, essays, and short written tasks — and longer assessment-style papers when you need marks against a paper, mark scheme, or rubric. It works inside Google Classroom or as a standalone upload tool. It does not mark official examinations, and it never returns work to students on its own.
