OTIYA FOR SCHOOLS · BETA

Bring more of the class
into the moment.

Prepare together, play together and learn what works. A dedicated school workspace brings educators, shared quizzes and inclusive live play into one place.

Every pupil chooses their own support privately on their own screen, nobody else sees who used what, and there is no diagnosis anywhere.

Own educator accounts No pupil account required

WHY SCHOOLS USE OTIYA

Every pupil in, every lesson.

Otiya turns the questions you already ask into a game the whole class plays together. Pupils answer on their own screen, you see straight away what has landed, and every child takes part without needing to put a hand up.

Hear from every pupil

Every child answers every question, including the ones who rarely speak up, so you get a picture of the whole class.

See what landed, straight away

After each game you can see which questions the class found hard, so you know exactly what to revisit next lesson.

Practice that sticks

Short, regular quizzes help pupils remember what they learned. Use one as a starter, a plenary or an end-of-topic check.

Support that stays private

Pupils can quietly choose clearer wording, picture cues, fewer choices, read aloud or more time on their own screen, while the class plays one game together.

Less preparation

Draft a quiz from a topic or a lesson handout with otiya AI, check it, then share it with colleagues so nobody starts from scratch.

Works in real classrooms

Pupils join with a code on phones, tablets or computers, with no apps to install and no pupil accounts to set up.

TOOLS FOR TEACHERS

Plan, play and follow up in one place.

Lesson pack

Give one topic or a PDF of the lesson and get the same questions at three levels, a short recap to read out and an exit ticket. You check everything before it is used.

Bring your questions with you

Import spreadsheets exported from Kahoot, Quizizz (Wayground), Blooket or Gimkit, or a Word or text question bank. The file is read in your browser and never uploaded.

Starters and topic insights

Questions a class found hard come back as a five-minute starter after two days, a week and three weeks, and each class's weakest topics are shown first.

Exit tickets and homework

Three quick questions at the end of a lesson, or a quiz set as homework with a link or code, with class results saved for you.

Parent updates

A short class summary of what was practised, ready to send through your own WhatsApp group or email. Class totals only, never a child's name or score. Otiya does not send or keep it.

For inclusion leads

See how often lessons use inclusive play, extra time and accuracy scoring across the school, from room totals only. Nothing is recorded about an individual pupil.

SPONSORED PLACES

Free for public schools, covered by sponsors.

People, businesses and groups sponsor Otiya for schools that can't pay, mainly public schools. A school applies and joins our waiting list, and when a sponsor wants to support a school like yours, we get in touch and set you up. Some sponsors look near their offices, others far away. During the beta, tick the sponsored place box when you apply.

EASIER PREPARATION

A workspace for the adults.
A game for the whole room.

Keep quizzes and staff access in one tidy place. No pupil accounts or SEND records.

Manage educator access

School Owner, School Admin, Educator and Viewer roles. Every member of staff has their own login, so no shared passwords.

Create quizzes from a topic or PDF

Ask Otiya AI for a first draft from a topic or PDF handout. Choose from 20 question languages, then review and edit before using it. See all 20 languages.

Organise Classes / Groups

Use your own class names and stage labels, such as Primary 5, Year 5 or JSS1. Save the usual settings for each group; no pupil lists needed.

Rehearse before a lesson

Run a practice game before class so you know exactly how it will go. Practice runs stay separate from normal school activity totals.

Set a suitable room pace

Set the thinking time for the room, and score on accuracy with no speed bonus.

See how sessions went

After hosting, open See results for question accuracy and what to revisit. Copy a class summary or save a class report to reopen later, without pupil names.

Set homework

Share a link or code. Pupils work at their own pace with no account, and you see who handed in and which questions to revisit.

Share to Classroom and Teams

Send the join link for a game or homework straight to Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams.

SAME GAME. DIFFERENT SUPPORT.

Support without singling anyone out.

One room code for everyone. You set the pace, and each pupil can quietly choose the support that helps them join in.

Read aloud & larger text

On each pupil’s own device, with the words still on screen.

Fewer choices & calmer screens

Fewer answer options, gentler sound and movement, and the choice to hide the timer.

Teacher-reviewed adaptations

otiya AI suggests clearer wording and visual cues. Nothing reaches pupils until you approve it.

Made to support your professional judgement, alongside the specialist help pupils already get.

OTIYA KIDS IN YOUR SETTING

Shared-device learning for ages 3 to 12.

Read-aloud early learning games for ages 3 to 5. Older children explore 10 topics with quizzes, picture choice, listening, matching and sequencing. Customise the pace and support for each child’s turn.

Works well for small groups sharing a tablet or the class screen.

PILOT AND REVIEW

Find out what helps in your setting.

Plan a pilot, brief your team, rehearse and collect staff feedback as you go. See how each session went at class level.

Our readiness page gives your DPO and IT lead what they need to review before you roll out.
