When teaching in a school in the UK, I found most of the small tools I needed online wanted my email, or displayed a lot of ads (sometimes both!)
So, I started making my own resources. They're free and work in any browser.
If you have any suggestions for new tools, let me know at hello@dandruce.co.uk.
A fullscreen exam countdown. Logs extra time and rest breaks, and stays readable from the back of the room.
A fullscreen board for halls running several papers at once - each subject shows its own normal and extra-time end times.
Countdown, stopwatch and clock in one. Digital or analogue, fullscreen, with colour warnings as time runs out.
Paste a class list and pick at random. Fair mode covers everyone before repeating, and a second tab makes random groups.
Sketch a room, drop in names and auto-generate a plan that respects keep-apart and sit-together rules. Import/export as Excel.
Build a colour-coded weekly timetable in minutes. Multiple weeks, day and week views, and a print-ready export.
Drop in a class list and run a league table and/or a knockout - great for competitions or end-of-term quizzes.
Enter raw marks and grade boundaries for a full percentage table, box plot and grade distribution. Any exam board.
A whole academic year on one page. Enter term and inset dates; bank holidays fill in and the totals print to a single page.
Sine, cosine and tangent built off the unit circle; sec, cosec and cot; the CAST rule and the inverse functions. KS4-KS5.
Prove the identities from the unit circle, then the compound, double and R sin/cos formulas, plus small-angle approximations. KS4-KS5.
The sine rule, cosine rule and area formula, each proved from one draggable triangle, with the ambiguous case. KS4-KS5.
A one-page map of every A-level and Further Maths distribution: shape, when to use it, mean, variance and formula.
Explore X ~ B(n, p). Reshape the bars with n and p, find P(X = k), cumulative and range probabilities, and the conditions.
Explore the normal curve: translation and stretch with the mean and sd, the 68-95-99.7 rule, a probability calculator and Z-scores.
Sample spaces, cards, spinners, probability trees and Venn diagrams - interactive tools for teaching GCSE probability.
Drag numbers into sets, learn the operations by shading, paint Venn diagrams and read conditional probability. Complex-numbers toggle.
Type your own numbers and watch every step: dimensions, addition, multiplication, the determinant and inverse (2x2 and 3x3). KS4-KS5.
See what a 2x2 matrix does to the unit square: rotations, reflections, stretches, shears, and the invariant points and lines. KS4-KS5.
The whole A-level topic, interactive: the gradient of a chord, the power rule, gradient functions, sketching derivatives, tangents and normals, stationary points and the full first-principles proof. KS5.
The reverse of differentiation, built from the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus: families of curves, numerical methods (rectangles and the trapezium rule), definite integrals and the area between two curves. KS5.
There are no ads, no accounts and no premium tier. If something here saved you time, a one-off tip on Ko-fi keeps the domain renewed and the next tool moving.
