It can be difficult to give thorough feedback without having to write or stick over part of your students’ work. Adding feedback systems to your exercise book pages can significantly help productivity and consistency. Customising can dramatically reduce your costs – particularly if you are currently using labels or sticking in feedback forms. If you’re using feedback stickers or stamps, we can create a spot on each page for them without covering work.

Our customised exercise books are perfect for all marking and feedback methods. These could include:

EBI (Even Better If)
WWW (What Went Well)
Live marking

You could include a dedicated space in your exercise books for showing that verbal feedback has been given for each piece.

You can see examples in our information pack and can ask us to design to your own specification.
