AI writing feedback on
spelling and grammar ✍️
Pupils get feedback on their writing against your own mark scheme, and you can see exactly where they used AI while drafting.
Give pupils feedback on their writing while they're still drafting.
"After finishing our narrative writing unit, I uploaded my editing checklist into Flint. I have never seen my students so engaged in editing. I had initially put a 30 minute time-limit on the assignment, but my students begged me to extend it. Wow!"
"After a recent essay, one of my students said that the essay drafting tool in Flint was like having me there throughout the writing process. Flint functions as an assistant for, rather than a replacement of, students' writing."

Example use cases for English
English departments use Flint for essay coaching, role-play with characters and authors, and close reading. You decide the reading level, the focus of the task, and the tone Sparky should take, and it guides each pupil without rewriting their work or taking over their voice.

Built for English in England's schools
Flint's curriculum presets include the National Curriculum programmes of study for English at Key Stages 1 and 2, Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, and the DfE's subject content for both GCSE English Language and GCSE English Literature. A department adopts them in one click, and Flint then builds activities against the same objectives its schemes of work already use.
For literature, upload the extract or chapter you're teaching and Sparky will keep to it. A Year 10 pupil can ask Sparky to play Mr Birling or Lady Macbeth and question them about a scene, then write up what they found in a PEE or PETAL paragraph with feedback on whether the quotation actually supports the point. For language, pupils can practise descriptive and persuasive writing and get comments on structure, vocabulary and punctuation before they hand anything in.
Put your department's mark scheme or success criteria in, and feedback follows your wording rather than a generic rubric. Sparky won't write the essay for them, and you can read every exchange. UK schools use Flint's separate UK service at uk.flintk12.com, with pupil data stored in London.
