GCSE revision for families

Revision without the drama.

You shouldn't have to nag. They shouldn't have to slam the door. Doorslam builds your teenager a revision plan around their life, in short 20-minute sessions, and shows you how it's going without you having to ask.

Join the beta See how it works

For GCSE students and their parents. We support what school teaches; we never replace it.

The parent dashboard's Health Score: 78, on track, with all three subjects on track and 27 weeks until exams. Progress moments: completed 6 sessions this week, and on a 19-day streak.
What you see, without having to ask.

Know how revision is going. Without the interrogation.

  • See it, don't chase it.

    What they've revised, how confident they felt and which topics need another look, there whenever you check. No more "have you done any revision?"

  • The structure is done for you.

    Tell us their subjects, exam dates and target grades. Doorslam builds the plan week by week and rebuilds it after every session. You choose how long and how often; it works out what comes next.

  • Feedback that arrives on its own.

    A clear dashboard and a printable progress report, so the conversation at dinner can be "nice work on algebra" instead of a row.

  • Rewards on your terms.

    Set the rewards you're happy to give, and the limits. Effort gets noticed without you keeping score.

Revision that fits their life, not the other way round.

  • Twenty minutes at a time.

    One topic is a focused 20 minutes. A session is one, two or three topics, with a break in between. Short enough to start, long enough to count.

  • Read it, hear it, try it.

    Every card, slide and question can be read aloud, maths included. Then practise on exam questions and get marked against the mark scheme.

  • Built around how they learn.

    Shaky topics come back; strong ones move on. If they have dyslexia, ADHD or other learning needs, the wording gets simpler and exam terms are explained on tap.

  • Their space, not yours.

    They see today and tomorrow, nothing more. No leaderboards, no comparing with anyone else. Just their next step.

AI that helps them remember, not one that does it for them.

We use AI where it makes revision stick, and nowhere it would do the thinking for them.

  • Beats: turn a topic into a song.

    Pick a topic and a style, and Doorslam writes and produces a short revision song about it. Photosynthesis is surprisingly catchy. Songs go into their library to replay on the bus.

  • Study Buddy: hints, not answers.

    It knows the exact question they're stuck on and gives a nudge, typed or spoken, without handing over the answer.

  • Smart Mark: marked like the exam.

    Typed answers marked against the real mark scheme, with partial marks and what to add next time.

  • A plan that learns.

    After every session the plan adjusts, so time goes where it's needed.

Every AI feature works from the GCSE specification and real mark schemes, gives hints rather than answers, and never puts your child in a league table.

We back up the classroom. We don't replace it.

Doorslam is a revision tool, not a tutor and not a teacher. It follows the exam board specification your school teaches and the mark schemes you use, so revision at home reinforces your lessons rather than competing with them. It doesn't set work, grade pupils or teach a different way of doing things. It just helps them go back over what you've taught, little and often.

Less drama. More done. Better results.

  • Fewer arguments about revision.

    You can see it's happening, so you don't have to ask.

  • Revision that actually happens.

    Small, regular sessions beat a panic in May.

  • Better results.

    Practice against the real mark scheme, and weak topics revisited until they hold.

Questions parents ask

  • Does it replace their teacher or a tutor?

    No. Doorslam is a revision tool. It follows what school teaches and helps your child go back over it.

  • What does the AI actually do?

    It writes revision songs (Beats), gives hints when they're stuck, marks typed answers against the mark scheme and adjusts the plan. It doesn't do the work for them.

  • How much time does it take?

    As much as you choose: one, two or three 20-minute topics a session, on the days you pick.

  • Will my child be compared with others?

    Never in front of them. Your child never sees a leaderboard or a ranking.
