PrepPals for teachers
Create classes, choose what an exam covers and when it is, and see how your class is doing. We check every teacher before teacher tools are turned on.
What you get
Classes with a join code
Make a class for a grade and subjects. Learners join with the code you give them and can leave at any time. You see who is in the class by nickname.
How the class is doing
See which topics the class is finding easy or hard, how mock tests went, and how the class has improved since a date you choose. It is built to encourage: learners are not ranked.
Exam scope and countdown
Pick the topics an exam covers and its date. Learners in your class get a countdown and practice that matches your scope.
How to start
- Sign in with your email address. We send you a link that works once, for 15 minutes.
- Open your account page and choose “Apply as a teacher”. Give your SACE registration number, your school and your province.
- We check your details and approve your application. Until then it shows as waiting. If it is not approved you can apply again after 30 days.
- Make your first class and share its join code with your learners.
Your privacy, and your learners’
- Before a learner joins your class they are told what you will see: their nickname and their progress in the class. They can leave at any time.
- You only see learners in your own classes. You never see their login code, PIN, real name or school, and you cannot see other teachers’ classes.
- Your SACE number is used only to check your application. It is deleted if you delete your account, along with your classes.
- The teacher area never shows ads or uses third-party analytics, and we do not sell or share this information.
PrepPals follows the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). The full notice is on the privacy page.
Questions
- Why do you check teachers?
- Teachers see learners’ progress, so we confirm each teacher’s SACE registration and school before turning teacher tools on.
- What do learners tell me?
- Nothing is shared beyond their nickname and their progress in your class. They are told this before they join.
- How long does approval take?
- We approve applications by hand, so it is not instant. Your account page shows whether your application is waiting.
- What if my application is not approved?
- Your account page shows the reason we gave, and you can apply again after 30 days.
- Can I delete my account?
- Yes, from your account page. Your account, your SACE number, your classes and their join codes are removed. Learners’ own accounts are not touched.
