The problem

You Became a Teacher to Teach.
Not to Spend Hours Every Week Building Resources.

Teachers average 49 hours a week, 10 hours above contract. Make My Lesson cuts workload on lesson plans, slide decks, worksheets, and assessments.

One 45-minute lesson can take 2 hours to prepare fully: four documents across four tools, each needing to match your curriculum route, not a generic standard.

Make My Lesson handles the structural generation work so your time goes into refining and adapting, not replacing your professional judgement.

Editorial integrity

Built to Respect Your Professional Judgement.

Make My Lesson is built for educators who review, adapt, and own every document before it reaches their classroom.

AI Is a Starting Point, Not a Final Product

“Content generated aligns with [curriculum name and route]. Always verify against current official documentation and adapt to your learners' needs.”

Professional Expertise Remains Essential

Your knowledge of your students, your classroom, and your school context is what turns generated content into a lesson that works in practice.

Honest About Limitations

Make My Lesson supports professional preparation. It does not replace your judgement or sign-off.

  • Not official exam papers
  • Not guaranteed syllabus alignment without your review
  • Teachers remain responsible for verification before classroom use

Handles the Repetitive Work

So your preparation time goes into quality, adaptation, and your learners rather than admin.

  • Learning objectives
  • Formatting
  • Slide generation
  • Mark schemes
  • Administrative preparation
