Qalam

Qalam for schools

A school gets the full lesson library for its pupils, an examination system for its teachers, and an honest picture of where each class is struggling.

258 schools on the platform
4,985 video lessons
1,327 practice questions
69 past exam papers

Lessons for every pupil

Every subject of the grade, on the pupil’s own phone or on a shared tablet, at home as well as at school.

Papers a teacher can trust

Generate an exam from the chapters actually taught, print it in the ministry’s own format, and mark it by scanning the answer sheets.

Results without waiting

Marking is automatic, and the head teacher sees the whole school’s results without asking each teacher to approve them first.

Parents kept informed

A parent reaches a weekly picture of their own child by phone, and the child is told openly that their parent can see it.

Where the class is weak

Every question is linked to the chapter and the lesson behind it, so a low score points at a topic, not just at a pupil.

No laboratory required

Interactive simulations stand in for equipment the school does not have, across physics, chemistry, biology and maths.

Laboratories on screen

Interactive physics, chemistry, biology and maths simulations from PhET at the University of Colorado, for schools with no laboratory.
