Don’t start with a blank page. Start with the specifications already built in. Give your departments a common framework that reduces the work around planning and helps them follow a more consistent process without taking professional judgement away from teachers.
Methodologies, strategies, collaboration and reflection are all part of the same workflow. See what’s been planned and what hasn’t – no more separate spreadsheets or checklists.
Departments and school leadership have a clearer view of the work as it develops – and when inspectors need to see the planning, the evidence is already there. We have your back.

Strands, outcomes, competences, skills and statements are already part of the planning process, giving departments a common structure to work from without having to recreate the framework themselves.
That means less time setting up the plan, copying curriculum language across and working out how to structure the work before the real planning has even started.
Plan as a department, not a collection of documents.
SchoolWise gives everyone a shared place to plan against the same curriculum structure, making it easier to work together, build on each other’s experience and develop the curriculum as a department.
Teachers still bring their own expertise, judgement and approach to the classroom. The common structure does not make the teaching the same — it gives the department a stronger way to plan together.
Instead of individual plans sitting in separate files, the work becomes something the department can see, contribute to and carry forward.
Keep the professional judgement individual. Make the planning stronger together.
Subject planning without the admin.
Teachers have to keep referring back to their specification, make sure outcomes, key learnings and competencies are covered, maintain separate checklists, capture reflections, show how the plan has evolved over time and make all of this available when an inspector needs to see it.
SchoolWise makes all of this part of the planning process, so it is checked off along the way.
The specification, language and terminology are surfaced through a common framework that guides teachers through the planning process. SchoolWise tracks what has and has not been planned for, captures reflections, keeps an audit of changes to each unit and the overall plan, and gives inspectors direct access or a clear printable version when needed.
Teachers spend less time managing the evidence around planning. Departments work through a more consistent process. And leadership has greater confidence that the planning is aligned, evolving and ready to stand up to inspection.
A plan that never gathers dust, but evolves.
What was planned at the start of the year is only part of the picture. Teachers learn from delivering it — what worked, what did not, what they would change and what they would do differently next time.
SchoolWise keeps that reflection with the unit of learning itself, so experience does not disappear into a separate document or get lost before the plan is revisited.
When a teacher or department comes back to that unit, they are not simply opening last year’s plan. They can see the thinking and experience that came from actually teaching it, then use that to shape what happens next.
Turn each year’s experience into a stronger plan for the next.
SchoolWise gives them a stronger structure around that work — the specification to plan from, a common framework to work through, a clearer way to collaborate, reflection that stays with the plan, and the evidence the school needs built up as the work happens.
Teachers spend less time managing the process around planning. Departments work in a more consistent way and build on what they learn. Leadership has greater confidence that subject planning is aligned, evolving and ready to stand up when it is scrutinised.
Less admin for teachers. More confidence for leadership. More time spent on the quality of the plan itself.
See what happens when the information your school already has is finally connected to the work that matters.
You do not need to start everywhere. Start with the part of the school where the value is clearest — care teams, learner support and AEN, academic tracking, assessment or curriculum planning.
