For teachers

Scootle games are made to slot into a lesson without fuss. Games run in any modern browser, so there is nothing to install and no pupil sign-in.

Learning objectives

Every game record lists what pupils should be able to do afterwards, so you can match a game to your lesson aim quickly.

Games show a recommended age range, usually between 8 and 16. Use the age filter in the library to narrow the list.

Use a short game for the first five minutes to recap last week's topic.

Pupils play in pairs, taking turns and explaining their thinking out loud.

Set a game as one station in a carousel alongside written and practical tasks.

Share a game link for optional practice. No pupil account is needed.

Scootle does not claim formal curriculum alignment. Where curriculum notes have been added to a game, they appear on that game's page.
