Attention and working memory training for the classroom
Try FocusGrid — open nowWhat it does
Dual-task grid exercise — pupils track a moving target while responding to letters or numbers, training divided attention
Trains focused attention in 60–90 seconds before a lesson — fast enough to use every day without eating into teaching time
Adjustable difficulty — works from KS1 through to secondary, scaling the task to the age and ability of the class
Whole-class or 1:1 — runs on any screen, no equipment, no accounts and nothing to set up
Who it's for
Any class teacher wanting a quick, evidence-informed settling routine. Especially useful before tests, after break, or with pupils who struggle to focus. FocusGrid works as a whole-class starter activity or as a quieter 1:1 intervention with individual pupils.
