Turn every piece of writing into a clear plan for improvement.
QuillSquare analyses the writing, the task, the student's plan and previous attempts—then shows what worked, what needs attention and exactly what to do next.
Use QuillSquare as a parent, as a tutor, or bring both together around the same learner.

Use QuillSquare your way
For parents. For tutors. Better together.
Start with the workspace that fits you. Parents can support writing between lessons, tutors can set and review work, and when they work together, QuillSquare keeps the learner’s tasks, feedback and progress connected.
For parents
Support writing between lessons
Submit writing, understand what is going well, and see what to focus on next.
A report that explains the writing—not just a mark
QuillSquare organises each evaluation into clear views. Parents can understand what matters; tutors can inspect the evidence and use it to plan.
Inside each evaluation
Clear direction without losing depth
Start with the overall picture, then explore evidence, explanations and suggestions in the areas that matter.
✓
Task and instruction complianceIdentifies what was expected and what the writing became instead.
✓
Plan-to-writing analysisShows whether planning choices carried through effectively.
✓
Specific next stepsPrioritises the highest-impact improvement instead of overwhelming the learner.
✓
Past-attempt awarenessRecognises whether earlier guidance has been addressed.
One connected improvement cycle
From the first idea to the next, stronger attempt
Most tools stop at feedback. QuillSquare connects the task, submission, analysis, action plan and learner history so each attempt can build on the last.
01
Upload or assign
Use a reusable task, upload a handwritten or typed submission, and include the student’s plan where available.
02
Check task fit
QuillSquare assesses whether the writing follows the requested form, instructions and purpose.
03
Understand the writing
See strengths and focus areas across structure, vocabulary, SPaG, technique, handwriting and more.
04
Analyse the plan
Understand how well the planning supported the finished piece—not merely whether a plan was present.
05
Set the next action
Turn a detailed diagnosis into a manageable priority and practical guidance for the next attempt.
06
Build on history
Past attempts, tutor guidance and learner focus areas can shape the next evaluation and reveal progress.
Built around better learning
Detailed enough to be useful. Focused enough to act on.
QuillSquare is designed to avoid two common failures: a shallow score that teaches nothing, and an enormous AI response that nobody uses.
01
Explain before suggesting
Feedback first shows what happened in the writing, then connects the recommendation to that evidence.
02
Prioritise, do not overwhelm
A clear action plan turns many observations into a sensible order for improvement.
03
Respect the teaching context
Tutor instructions, learner profile, SEND needs, target level and previous work influence the evaluation.
04
Look beyond one submission
The real goal is not a prettier report. It is stronger writing across repeated attempts and different tasks.
When parent and tutor connect
One learner. One clear view of the work.
Tutor-set work, extra practice and reviewed feedback can all stay connected to the same learner — without making everything visible to everyone.
1
Tutor sets the work
The task appears in the learner’s QuillSquare account, ready to complete.
2
Work is submitted
Parent or learner uploads the completed writing when it is ready.
3
QuillSquare prepares the feedback
QuillSquare looks at the writing in context and highlights what is working and what to focus on next.
4
Tutor reviews first
For tutor-set work, the tutor sees the feedback first and decides when it is ready to share.
5
Parent sees the reviewed report
Once released, the feedback appears in the parent account alongside the learner’s earlier work.
Tutor sets work and reviews the feedbackParents can follow tutor-set work and see feedback once it is releasedParents choose which additional reports tutors can see
Shared where useful. Private where it matters.
Shared learner details
The learner information needed for the work stays consistent across parent and connected tutor views.
Parents choose what else to share
Extra practice stays private unless the parent chooses to share the report.
Tutor notes stay private
Tutor-private notes are not shown to the parent or other tutors.
Parent notes stay private
Parent-private notes are not shown to tutors.
Tutors stay separate
One tutor does not see another tutor’s work or private notes.
