Our mission
Teachers already collect a huge amount of useful information from mocks, past papers and classroom assessments. The problem is often the time it takes to turn those marks into something useful.
QLAMaster is designed to make that process clearer. It analyses performance by question, topic and paper, then helps turn those patterns into practical feedback and revision priorities.
The aim is simple: less time wrestling with data, more time deciding what to teach next.
Why QLAMaster exists
QLA can reveal exactly where students are losing marks, but getting there often means repetitive spreadsheets, manual calculations and hours of sorting results.
Use an existing QLAMaster-ready assessment, create your own paper, or use AI-assisted mapping to prepare a new assessment.
Enter the question-level marks your class achieved using a familiar spreadsheet workflow.
Upload the completed file and QLAMaster analyses performance by question, topic and paper.
Create personalised feedback and revision outputs that help students understand where to focus next.
Informed by evidence
QLAMaster is designed around approaches that are well supported by education research — including effective feedback, helping students understand their current performance and making appropriate next steps clearer.
The Education Endowment Foundation identifies feedback as an approach with strong evidence of positive impact on learning.
QLAMaster helps teachers use question-level assessment data to identify strengths and gaps, making it easier to produce more focused feedback and clearer priorities for students.
Read the EEF evidence on feedbackEvidence around metacognition and self-regulated learning highlights the importance of helping students plan, monitor and evaluate their learning.
QLAMaster helps make assessment strengths, gaps and revision priorities easier to see, giving teachers clearer information to support those conversations.
Read the EEF evidence on metacognitionAssessment data is most useful when it helps teachers decide what students understand, where misconceptions remain and what should happen next.
QLAMaster organises question-level results into clearer patterns by question, topic and paper, helping teachers move from raw marks towards practical teaching and revision decisions.
References to external research describe the wider evidence base for teaching, assessment and feedback practices. They do not mean that QLAMaster itself has been independently evaluated, endorsed by or affiliated with any external organisation or research body.
Our story
QLAMaster started with a simple frustration: question-level analysis can be extremely useful, but producing it manually is repetitive and time-consuming.
The product was shaped around a practical school workflow: prepare the assessment, enter marks, upload the data and turn it into clearer feedback.
QLAMaster now supports question, topic and paper analysis alongside personalised student feedback, with further tools for departments and schools continuing to be developed.
How we build
QLAMaster is built around a few simple principles.
Features should reduce workload or make assessment information easier to use.
Teachers should be able to understand what the data means without learning another complicated system.
Analysis matters most when it leads to useful next steps for teaching, intervention and revision.
QLAMaster is designed around UK exam boards, specifications, past papers and school assessment workflows.
Independent platform
QLAMaster is an independent platform designed for UK assessment workflows and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any exam board.
