Introduction
This playbook gives IB coordinators and department leads a precise, step‑by‑step plan to deploy RevisionDojo at school scale—covering educator sign‑up, class setup, bulk AI grading, analytics, exemplar use, targeted interventions, and partner‑school student discounts. All guidance maps to IB criteria and current syllabus cycles and references first‑assessment dates where applicable.
What outcomes schools can expect
-
Large, proven footprint: 350,000+ students and 2,500+ schools use RevisionDojo worldwide. See the Schools overview for program terms and teacher benefits. (Schools)
-
Measurable impact: ~39–40% reduction in exam stress, 42% boost in understanding of complex concepts, and 45% improvement in exam technique reported in the annual survey. (State of Learning Survey, Schools)
-
Teacher workload reduction via AI grading and centralized analytics aligned to IB mark schemes. (Coursework Grader, Analytics for schools)
Data protection, access, and readiness checklist
-
Security and privacy: SSO, 2FA, audit logging, GDPR‑aligned controls; no marketing cookies; clear DSAR processes. (Trust Center, Controls, Cookie Policy)
-
Student data handling: Files uploaded to the Coursework Grader are deleted within 48 hours and are not used for AI training. (Coursework Grader)
-
School governance: Role‑based access, exportable reports (CSV/PDF), and co‑teaching access for shared classes. (Analytics for schools)
Step 1 — Activate your Partner School benefits
-
Visit the Schools page to initiate or confirm your Partner School status: free Pro teacher accounts, free bulk coursework grading, and a 10% student plan discount. (Schools)
-
Confirm your privacy posture and preferred SSO/2FA approach with your IT lead. (Trust Center)
Step 2 — Create classes and add staff
-
Establish class sections and assign co‑teachers where relevant; the platform supports collaborative access for consistent grading and interventions. (Analytics for schools)
-
Set naming conventions (e.g., “IB Chem HL Y2 — Paper 2 Focus”) to match internal timetabling and facilitate cohort analytics.
Step 3 — Onboard students and enable discounts
-
Share access instructions and your school’s acceptable‑use and privacy guidance.
-
Inform families that Partner School status provides a 10% discount on individual plans; all teachers retain free Pro access. (Schools, Pricing)
Step 4 — Establish a baseline and map to syllabus
-
Build a short diagnostic per subject using the Test Builder and/or curated Questionbank sets; run in Exam Mode to mirror real timing and mark‑scheme feedback. (Test Builder, Questionbank, Exam Mode)
-
Optional: Use the IB Grade Calculator to model target outcomes across subjects. (IB Grade Calculator)
Step 5 — Run bulk coursework grading (IA, EE, TOK)
-
Use the free Bulk Coursework Grading to submit class sets; select the subject and rubric so Jojo AI returns criterion‑aligned feedback, annotated strengths/weaknesses, and next steps. (Schools, Coursework Grader)
-
Export feedback snapshots (CSV/PDF) for department meetings, parent conferences, and student reflection logs. (Analytics for schools)
Step 6 — Turn analytics into interventions
-
Use dashboards to monitor topic mastery, command‑term performance, and paper‑level trends by class and cohort; schedule weekly “data huddles” to plan reteach cycles. (Analytics for schools)
-
Leverage year‑over‑year views to evaluate which interventions moved the needle (e.g., a Paper 2 writing protocol). (Year‑on‑Year Analytics)
Step 7 — Use exemplars to calibrate quality
-
Assign high‑scoring exemplars to align expectations on structure, evidence, and evaluation; discuss why responses meet specific criterion bands. (Business Mgmt IA Exemplars)
-
Pair exemplars with the Coursework Grader’s criterion breakdown so students see concrete pathways from their draft to a higher band. (Coursework Grader)
Step 8 — Build the weekly practice cadence
-
Content mastery: Up‑to‑date examiner‑written notes and lessons per subject. (Study Notes)
-
Active recall: Personalised and curated flashcard decks with spaced repetition. (Flashcards)
-
Deliberate practice: Questionbank with instant mark‑scheme feedback, and Exam Mode for timed conditions. (Questionbank, Exam Mode)
-
24/7 support: Jojo AI for explanations, targeted drills, and criterion‑aware guidance. (Jojo AI)

-
RevisionDojo is developed independently and is not endorsed by the IBO. This is stated across subject and feature pages.
Step 10 — Measure impact and communicate progress
-
Track reductions in stress, growth in concept mastery, and exam‑technique gains alongside grades. (State of Learning Survey)
-
Share class and cohort reports with stakeholders; retain longitudinal data to inform next year’s schemes of work. (Year‑on‑Year Analytics)
