What is Learning By Questions?
Learning by Questions (LbQ) is an online teaching and learning platform that helps schools improve pupil outcomes by embedding evidence-informed pedagogy into everyday lessons and providing teachers with real-time insight into pupil understanding. It identifies misconceptions instantly, enables responsive and inclusive teaching, and reduces unnecessary workload linked to marking and data analysis.
Used in over 1,500 UK schools and 280 trusts, LbQ combines retrieval practice, adaptive learning, formative assessment and diagnostic feedback within a single system.
Independent research, including studies with LEO Academy Trust and Inspiring Futures through Learning Trust led by Dr Fiona Aubrey-Smith, has highlighted LbQ’s impact on teaching practice, workload reduction, pupil progress and classroom responsiveness.
LbQ also contributed to the Department for Education’s EdTech Evidence Board pilot, helping to inform emerging standards for evidence quality in education technology.

Educational Impact
LbQ is cloud based and runs in a browser. Use front-of-class for 'I do, we do, you do' or get powerful pupil insights with any internet connected pupil devices.
Once your school subscribes, access is immediate and teachers can begin using in lessons straight away.
LbQ was designed for educators in high-pressure environments, so we've kept it as instinctive as possible. In an impact survey of 56 schools, 100% of teachers strongly agreed that LbQ was easy to use. If you do need a little extra help, plenty is on hand and training can be organised online or in person.
During school hours, there is a dedicated team available on 'chat' for any questions you might have or help you might need. All real human beings, many teachers, none are bots!
