Classroom

A classroom points system that never creates a pupil account

You award points from your phone or laptop while walking between desks, and the team table stays projected on the board. Pupils have no login, no username to remember and no data to hand over.

No card needed. Players install nothing.

How it works in a classroom

  1. Create a game of type classroom

    That choice turns on avatars-only mode straight away: pupils cannot upload a photo, they pick an illustration from a grid. It is the default, not a setting buried three menus deep.

  2. Set the teams, or let pupils join

    Type in the team names before the lesson, or project the QR and let pupils join with a nickname. You decide which of the two suits your class, and you can rename anything afterwards.

  3. Project the board and award points

    The short address opens in the browser of the machine driving the projector. You add or remove points from your phone as you move around the room, without going back to your desk.

What changes for a teacher

No personal data is required

A participant is a nickname and an avatar. No surname, no class list, no email, no account for a parent to create. That is the substantive difference with tools that build a longitudinal profile of a child, and it is what makes the use defensible to a head teacher.

Avatars only, by default, in this mode

Profile photos are off from the moment you create a classroom game. There is nothing to untick and nothing to police: there is no child's photo to moderate because there is no photo at all.

Team points rather than individual ranking

Nothing forces you to rank pupils one by one. Working in teams moves the stake towards cooperation and avoids publicly displaying the pupil who is always last, which is the main criticism levelled at classroom points systems.

Removing a point is logged, not hidden

Taking a point away is possible and recorded. You can therefore reverse it if the sanction turns out to be disproportionate, and the history stays coherent: nothing quietly disappears from the board.

Reset at the end of a period

End of the week, end of a unit, end of term: a score reset keeps the teams and starts again from zero. You do not rebuild your class every time.

Legible from the back row

The display is designed for a projector: large figures, hard contrast, and never information carried by colour alone. A pupil at the back reads the table without squinting.

Three classroom uses

Scorofun has just launched: these are scenarios describing what the product does, not testimonials. We will publish real feedback once we have some — and not before.

A revision challenge before a test

Four teams, a run of questions, one point for a correct answer and three for the hard ones. The projected table turns revision into a short competition, and you keep control of the pace because you are the one validating each answer.

Weekly classroom points

Rows earn points for settling quickly after break, for having their equipment out, or for helping each other. The board stays up during the day, and Friday's reset avoids the debt effect that discourages a team that has fallen behind.

An inter-class mental maths tournament

Two classes, a projector in the hall, three-minute rounds. Pupils who are not at the board follow the score on screen, and the visible timer saves you repeating how long is left.

Free, event pass or subscription?

Classroom use fits the free plan: unlimited participants and two live games at once, which covers a class or two. Pro only becomes relevant if you run several classes in parallel or want the school's logo on the screen instead of ours.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use it without collecting any pupil data?

Yes, and that is the normal mode. Pupils have no account: they appear under a nickname and an avatar chosen on the spot. You can even create the teams yourself so that no pupil touches a device at all — the screen and the score pad are enough.

Does anything need to be installed on school machines?

No. The board is a web page opened in a browser, so there is no software to install, no extension to approve and no admin rights to request. Pupils who join from their own device install nothing either — they scan a QR code and land in their browser.

Do pupils need phones?

No. The simplest classroom setup is the one where only you handle the tool: you create the teams and award the points, pupils watch the projected board. Their phones only matter if you want them to track an individual rank.

How does this compare with ClassDojo or Kahoot?

Scorofun does one thing: count points and show them large. There is no question bank, no messaging with families, no long-term behaviour record for a child. It is a narrower tool, and that is exactly why it does not need a profile per pupil.

What is stored, and for how long?

Nicknames and scores for the game, attached to your teacher account. Photos, if you allowed them outside a school context, are deleted thirty days after the game ends. The detail is on our privacy page, and you can ask for your account and games to be deleted at any time.

Does it work with the projector in my room?

Yes, as soon as the machine driving it can open a web page. It is an address typed into a browser: no extension to install and no admin rights to request from whoever manages the estate.

What if the school network is unreliable?

Points entered during an outage are kept on your device and sent when the connection returns. The projected board keeps the last standings it received rather than showing an error in front of the class.

Try it on one revision session

Create a classroom game, project the board, hand out twenty points. Ten minutes will tell you whether the format suits your group.
