For schools

Your markscheme. Your marks. Less of your evening.

Tickd is available to schools. Teachers get access through their school. Tickd marks your class’s handwritten maths papers against your markscheme. You check every mark before anything goes back.

How it works

Tickd has split one scanned PDF into 8 students with 2 pages each, and shows every student’s first page side by side so you can check where each paper starts. The name area on each page is blacked out.Tickd has split one scanned PDF into 8 students with 2 pages each, and shows every student’s first page side by side so you can check where each paper starts.

Example, made-up students

Marked the way you mark.

Ticks, crosses and short remarks in the margin, where students look. Print the class set or keep it digital.

Part of a printed marked page: two part marks with the remarks “missing a term” and “check your f′(x)”, a cross on a blank answer, and a tick.

Marks method, not just answers.

Tickd follows your markscheme the way an examiner would. No accuracy mark without its method mark, follow-through where it’s earned.
