The problem

You became a teacher to teach.
Not to spend hours every week building resources.

The average teacher works 49 hours a week — 10 hours more than their contracted hours. Save time lesson planning and reduce teacher workload on the tasks Make My Lesson handles: writing lesson plans, building slide decks, creating student worksheets, and designing assessments.

One 45-minute lesson can take 2 hours to prepare fully. A lesson plan. A presentation. An activity. An assessment. That is four separate documents, across four different tools, all needing to align with your specific curriculum route — not some generic standard on the other side of the world.

Make My Lesson was built to change that. Not by cutting corners. Not by replacing your professional judgement. But by doing the structural, time-consuming generation work so that the time you do spend on your teaching goes into refining, adapting, and making it yours.

  • Lesson plan in Word/Google Docs 30–60 minutes per plan. Starting from scratch. Checking curriculum alignment manually. Formatting objectives, differentiation, homework.
  • Presentation in PowerPoint/Google Slides 45–90 minutes. Finding images. Formatting slides. Writing speaker notes. None of it connected to the lesson plan you just wrote.
  • Worksheet from scratch or Teachers Pay Teachers 30–60 minutes. Adapting something generic. Writing the answer key separately. Checking it matches what you actually taught.
  • Assessment paper + mark scheme 60–90 minutes. Designing questions. Balancing difficulty. Writing the mark scheme. Making sure it tests what you actually covered.
  • Total: 2.5 – 5 hours per complete lesson Across 5 different tools that don't know what each other did. Nothing automatically aligned. Nothing curriculum-specific.

How it works

Four stages. One topic.
Everything you need.

Your four-stage teaching pack: each stage adds classroom-ready instructional materials. Every stage costs one credit; a complete pack costs 4 credits. Use inquiry-based learning and 16 embedded teaching methods with mandatory Bloom's Taxonomy balancing—use all four stages together or any stage on its own.

📋 Plan

Lesson Plan

1 credit · Standalone or foundation for all stages

Enter your curriculum, year level, subject, topic, teaching method and lesson duration. Make My Lesson generates a fully structured lesson plan including learning objectives written in your curriculum's exact outcome language, a sequenced teaching structure, Bloom's Taxonomy alignment across all objectives, differentiation strategies for varied learner needs, a formative assessment check, and a homework task.

This is not a template with blanks to fill in. It is a complete, curriculum-aligned, classroom-ready lesson plan written specifically for your route, your grade, and your topic.

Classroom Presentation

1 credit · Inherits context from Stage 1

Your lesson plan becomes a classroom-ready slide deck. Every slide performs a specific teaching job — not a generic summary. Slides include curriculum-accurate content, per-slide speaker notes, and AI-generated educational images where they have the highest learning value. Lesson duration drives slide count: a 45-minute lesson produces 9 slides, a 60-minute lesson produces 12.

Export directly to PPTX, PDF, Google Classroom, or Microsoft Teams. Present directly from the app.

Classroom Activity

1 credit · Always two documents
⚡ Always two separate documents — student sheet + teacher answer key

Every Stage 3 generation always produces two separate documents: a student-facing activity sheet and a teacher answer key — always, without exception. Choose your activity format, question types from 17 options, and difficulty track. The activity is formative, differentiated, and fully aligned to the lesson objectives from Stage 1.

No more building a worksheet and then separately writing the answer key. Both arrive together.

Summative Assessment

1 credit · Always two documents
⚡ Always two separate documents — assessment paper + mark scheme

A complete, curriculum-aligned assessment paper with a detailed teacher mark scheme — always two separate documents. Duration and mark range are your choice. Bloom's Taxonomy balancing is applied automatically to every assessment — no paper that only tests recall, no paper that accidentally skips application.

This is the stage that replaces the most time. Designing a proper assessment paper with a mark scheme from scratch typically takes a teacher 60–90 minutes. Make My Lesson generates both in minutes.

Teaching methods

16 teaching methods. Actually embedded. Not just labelled.

When you select a teaching method, Make My Lesson doesn't just add a label to the top of your lesson plan. The method shapes how every section of every document is structured — the starter activity, the main teaching sequence, the activity format, the assessment style. Select Inquiry-Based Learning and every output is built around questions, discovery and student exploration. Select Collaborative Learning and every activity includes structured pair and group work.

What it replaces

One platform. Everything you used to need five tools for.

Most teachers piece together their lesson preparation across multiple tools — a lesson plan template in Word, a slide deck in PowerPoint or Google Slides, a worksheet builder somewhere else, a quiz generator, and then back to Word to write the assessment. Each tool doesn't know what the others did. Nothing is aligned. Nothing is curriculum-specific. And the whole process takes hours.

Make My Lesson replaces all of it. One platform. One curriculum selection. Everything generated in sequence, everything coherent, everything aligned.

Curriculum coverage

Your curriculum. Your route. Your output. Not a generic template.

Make My Lesson supports 71 curriculum routes across five curriculum families. Every route has its own dedicated prompt with exact syllabus authority, grade-appropriate language, assessment framing, and safety guardrails. A NSW HSC output is different from a VCE output. A Cambridge IGCSE output is different from an Edexcel GCSE output. Because they should be.

United States — 4 Curriculum Frameworks

Elementary (Grades 1–5, CCSS/NGSS), Middle School (Grades 6–8), High School Standard (Grades 9–12), and Advanced Placement / AP Pathway (Grades 9–12, College Board CED aligned). Pre-AP handling for Grades 9–10 and full AP framing for Grades 11–12.

Australia — 23 Curriculum Routes

NSW, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, ACT and Northern Territory — across Primary (Years 1–6), Secondary (Years 7–10), and Senior Certificate levels. Every state and territory covered, including HSC, VCE, QCE, WACE, SACE, TCE, ACT Senior Secondary, and NTCET.

Australian teachers are among the most underserved by international lesson planning tools. Every output on Make My Lesson is calibrated to your state authority — NESA, VCAA, QCAA, SCSA, and more — not to a generic ACARA interpretation that ignores your exam board’s specific language and requirements.

United Kingdom — 14 Curriculum Routes

UK National Curriculum (DfE) across KS1/KS2, KS3, KS4/GCSE and KS5/A Level. Cambridge International (CAIE) from Primary through to AS and A Level. Pearson Edexcel across KS1 through KS5. All outputs are aligned to the specific board — AQA, OCR, Edexcel and WJEC terminology, command words and assessment objectives are applied to every generation.

GCSE and A Level teachers spend enormous amounts of time ensuring their lesson plans and assessments match their exam board’s exact language. Make My Lesson handles this automatically.

Canada — 24 Curriculum Routes

Eight province and territory groups across three levels: Elementary (Grades 1–6), Grades 7–10, and Senior (Grades 11–12). Ontario OSSD, British Columbia Dogwood Diploma, Alberta Diploma, Quebec QEP/MEES, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Atlantic Canada (APEF framework), and Northern Territories.

Every province uses its own terminology. Ontario uses Strand and Specific Expectation. British Columbia uses Big Idea and Curricular Competency. Alberta uses General Outcome and Specific Outcome. Make My Lesson applies the right language automatically — you never see generic output that ignores your provincial framework.

International Baccalaureate — 3 Programmes

Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Diploma Programme (DP) across all subject groups. IB pedagogy — inquiry-based learning, conceptual understanding, ATL skills, global contexts, and criterion-referenced assessment — is embedded throughout, not just labelled.

IB teachers are among the hardest-working professionals in education. Their resources need to reflect genuine IB pedagogy. Make My Lesson’s IB outputs are programme-specific: PYP generates no exam-style content, MYP content is criterion-aligned, DP content separates HL and SL appropriately.

PYPMYPDiploma DPATL SkillsHL / SLCriterion-referenced
Editorial integrity

Built to respect your professional judgement. Not to replace it.

Every generated output includes a verification footer: “Content generated aligns with [curriculum name and route]. Always verify against current official documentation and adapt to your learners' needs. ” This is not legal boilerplate. It is a genuine acknowledgement that AI generation is a starting point, not a final product. Your knowledge of your students, your classroom, and your school context is what makes a lesson plan come to life.

Make My Lesson does not claim to generate official exam papers. It does not guarantee alignment with syllabuses that change every year without manual review. What it does is handle the structural, time-consuming generation work so that the professional time you spend on lesson preparation is focused on quality, adaptation, and your learners — not on typing out objectives, formatting slide decks, and writing mark schemes from scratch.
