Practical learning for secondary schools
Less preparing.
More teaching.
Varelinth turns your syllabus into a term plan, practical tasks, teams and a first pass at marking — and hands each one back to you to approve before any student sees it.

What it does
Seven pieces of preparation that used to be yours
Each one ends with you approving, adjusting or refusing what it produced.
Reads the syllabus
Upload the document you were given. Varelinth returns a competency tree, a week-by-week scheme of work and the assessment points, each traceable to the sentence it came from. You approve it or change it.
Writes the practical work
Tasks grounded in something students can actually do, at three levels, so one class does not need three sets of worksheets. Every task also comes in a version that needs nothing but paper.
Suggests who sits with whom
Teams built on evidence of what each student can already do, for the outcome you choose. The reasoning for each placement is on screen, and you can swap anyone.
Marks the first pass
Work is scored criterion by criterion against your rubric, with evidence quoted from the student's own answer. You adjust what you disagree with, then release it.
Notices what you cannot
A class quietly getting the same thing wrong, a student who has stopped handing work in, a question that is being misread rather than failed. Each observation arrives with one thing you could do.
Shows the bigger picture
Coverage and marking turnaround at class, department and school level. Every figure says what it is being compared against.
Reads handwriting, when enabled
Where text recognition is switched on for your site, a photographed script is transcribed and anything uncertain is handed back for you to confirm, never guessed at. Where it is not, Varelinth says so rather than pretending.
Honest about AI. Plans, tasks and marks come from an AI model your school connects. Until one is connected, Varelinth runs in sample mode and says so on every screen that shows generated work.
How it works
From syllabus to marked work
Step 1: Upload the syllabus
The document you already have.
Step 2: Review the plan
Approve it, or change what you would teach differently.
Step 3: Teach
Set practical work and teams; students hand in on a phone or on paper.
Step 4: Mark and release
Check the first pass, adjust it, and release it to the student.
You stay in charge
What it will not do
These are constraints in the code, not promises in a policy.
It does not invent
Every outcome in a generated plan is anchored to a span of the document you uploaded. Anything the model produces without one is discarded before you see it.
It does not decide
A plan, a task, a team and a mark are all proposals until a person approves them. No path through the product sends generated work to a student on its own.
It does not rank teachers
A department head sees who needs support, and why. There is no league table, and no endpoint that could produce one.
It does not accuse a student
Where work looks unusual you are shown what was observed. Varelinth records observations; the judgement is yours.
In the classroom
Built for the room it runs in
Works with the network off
A student handing work in and a teacher marking it both work offline. What you did is held on the device and sent when the connection returns, and the screen always says which state you are in.
Works on the phone that is actually there
Designed for a small screen first, with the things you reach for within thumb range. The wide screen is the widened case.
Works on paper
Every practical task has a version that needs no equipment, and handwritten work can be photographed and handed in.
The machine does the setup. You do the judging.
Varelinth runs per institution, with departments, terms and classes set up before anyone signs in. Read what that involves and what to send us.
