The Pobble blog

The ultimate guide to Pobble School Subscriptions.

Everything you need to help students write more and write better. Unlock a full year of writing inspiration, save planning time, and build a school-wide love of writing.

Writing can be tough to teach. Ideas stall, time is short, and progress matters. Pobble gives teachers something useful every day, so students get started quickly and keep going.

The challenge: why writing is hard in schools

Many schools see the same barriers: ideas dry up, lessons feel flat, and planning takes too long. You may hear:

• “My students do not know what to write.”

• “They lose interest halfway through.”

• “Planning takes ages and still misses the mark.”

Students need stronger starts. Teachers need resources that work in real classrooms.

The solution: how Pobble helps your school

Imagine teachers planning in minutes, students excited to write, and a consistent routine across classes. That is what Pobble supports.

Unlimited writing inspiration
Give your staff full access to Pobble 365, a calendar of daily prompts plus themed lessons and quick writes. Each prompt pairs a striking image with practical activities that get writing underway.

Time saved on planning
Ready-made, editable lessons mean less preparation and more time teaching. Clear steps, sentence starters, talk prompts, word banks, and short challenges make lessons flow.

Differentiation in one click
Original, Easier, or Harder, all from the same image and objective. Keep mixed ability classes on the same task while matching the right level of challenge.

Fits your scheme
Pobble complements the way you already teach. Slot prompts into your existing plans and keep your scheme; you just add daily ideas that students enjoy.

Created by teachers, for teachers

Pobble began in a primary classroom and is still built with teachers. Every prompt is crafted and reviewed by real teachers, not just generated by AI. The goal is simple: joyful writing that improves over time. Trusted by more than 1,000,000 teachers in 150 countries.

Why schools choose Pobble

Questions schools ask

We know that making a decision like this comes with questions and concerns. Let’s address some of the most common ones:

We already have a writing scheme. Can we still use Pobble?
Yes. Pobble is not a writing scheme. It is a flexible resource that supports your scheme and adds fresh, daily ideas. Read more about how it will support your scheme or curriculum here.

Is Pobble hard to roll out?
No. Invite staff, share the link, and they can start in minutes. No long training. Central billing keeps it simple.

Will this help outcomes?
Pobble builds stronger starts and steady stamina. Talk before writing, clear sentence practice, and repeatable routines lead to better writing that students are proud to share. Our research, in partnership with UCL’s Educate programme, shows significant improvements in writing speed and enjoyment, leading to better attainment across the board.
