About PiXL Classrooms
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note, this application is for PiXL school teachers only and you will need to get your school id from your RSL if your school is a member of the PiXL club.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After teaching a sequence of lessons, you will have collected a range of evidence to show what students can and cannot do. A PiXL Classrooms lesson is an intervention lesson that you will deliver at the end of a sequence of lessons that will focus on a single PLC skill that has been identified as an area of weakness with the aim of ensuring that all students make progress. This app has a range of resources that will enable you to create a bespoke and heavily differentiated set of activities that will ensure all students are involved in the learning and are shown to make progress in one lesson.

Nothing major. Just a few additions to the subject list.
We are aware that the PLC list is lagging when searching for a PLC element and are currently working on a fix. This will be fixed behind the scenes and will be implemented as soon as possible without the need for an additional update.

Thank you for the feedback.
In this update we fix an issue relating to PLC elements containing certain characters preventing lessons from being found or PLC data from being correctly loaded. We have also introduced a button in the marking tool that enables the real time PLC data to be updated from the mini assessment.

This update is all about streamlining your workflow:
An warning is now shown when simultaneously trying to use 2 devices.
Fix for seat scale (when viewing seating plan 2 or 3).
Marking tool is coming to Maths (as part of a trial before rolling it out to all subjects). This version of the app includes some improvements to the marking tool in preparation for its release.
To edit a phase of an intervention lesson that you have created, you can now do this from the intervention lesson builder (previous feature "My lesson phases" has now been removed/integrated into lesson builder). This now means that designing and editing tools for lessons are now side by side.
The 'Real-time PLC' tool now has a register view. In the event that your seat scale is too small that you can no longer see names, the PLC can now be completed from a list of names but it still retains the colour coding feature on the seating plan.
