A free homework tracker that records the date set, due date, submission status, quality rating and any follow-up action — designed to take 30 seconds per class to update.

Homework follow-up is usually the first thing to slip when teaching gets busy. A consistent tracker means you don't lose track of who's missed three pieces in a row, and gives you a clean record for parents' evening or pastoral conversations.

Use it alongside the OES For Teaching marking tools to log feedback themes across the class — patterns surface that you'd never spot one book at a time.

What you'll learn

  • Per-class grid with set date, due date, submission and quality
  • Auto-flag for repeat non-submission
  • Parent / pastoral follow-up column
  • Printable and editable spreadsheet versions

Who this is for

  • Classroom teachers across all subjects
  • Form tutors monitoring tutee homework
  • Heads of department setting consistent expectations

Frequently asked questions

Should I use this or my school's data system?

Use both. School systems are the official record; this tracker is your working tool — quicker to update mid-lesson and easier to scan at a glance.

How quickly should I follow up missed homework?

Same week, ideally next lesson. Delays signal that homework is optional, which collapses the routine quickly.
