Secondary school revision, built around what they're learning now

Tell us what they
covered today.
We'll build tonight's
revision.

Lightbulb Learning turns today's lesson into a focused revision session for tonight, then remembers which topics need to come back. Built for secondary school students, with GCSE pathways first.

You're on the list. We'll be in touch soon.

Why it matters

Most students do not get stuck because they will not revise.
They get stuck because they do not know what to revise tonight.

Revision often breaks down before it starts. Students guess. Parents try to help. The curriculum is wide, exam boards differ, and it is hard to know what matters most right now.

Lightbulb Learning turns that uncertainty into a clear, short revision session built around what has actually been taught and what still needs work — across secondary school, starting with core subjects.

Less guessing

"What needs to come back?"
Weak topics resurface automatically

How it works

A revision memory, not just a quiz app

STEP 01
Tell us what was covered

Choose year group, exam board, subject and today's topic. We confirm the likely topics — tap to adjust if needed.

STEP 02
Get tonight's revision

Lightbulb builds a short session — quick recall, multiple choice and exam-style questions — matched to the spec.

STEP 03
Let the app remember

Strong topics space out. Weak topics return sooner. Progress builds session by session, without anyone having to track it manually.


What makes it different

It remembers
what needs
to come back

Most revision tools give students more questions. Lightbulb Learning builds a memory of what each student is secure on, what is shaky, and what is being forgotten.

That makes revision more targeted, less overwhelming, and easier to keep up with over time.

  • Short nightly sessions
  • Topic-level tracking
  • Spaced repetition over time
  • Progress you can actually see

Subject coverage

Starting with core secondary subjects

We're starting with core secondary subjects and expanding carefully, with GCSE pathways first. Strong coverage first, then more subjects based on demand.

Starting with core secondary subjects, GCSE pathways first. Expanding carefully from there.


Revision over time

Revision gets smarter as the student uses it

Each session helps Lightbulb Learning understand which topics are secure and which need another pass. Progress is built topic by topic, not guessed at the night before a test.

Why we're building this

Revision often breaks down
before it begins

"Students waste time deciding what to do. Parents try to help, but the curriculum, exam boards and timing make that harder than it should be."

Lightbulb Learning is being built to make nightly revision clearer, calmer, and easier to keep up with — starting with core secondary subjects and GCSE pathways, done properly.
