Pupil points roll up to their house

Award a point to a pupil and their house total moves in the same tap. Houses are teams, so individual effort and the house standings update together — no adding up tally charts on a Friday afternoon.

Live on the classroom or hall display

Open the board link on any smart TV, projector, or Chromebook and it updates the moment you award a point from your phone. Ideal for a permanent house-points display in the classroom or the school hall — no casting app, just a link the screen opens.

No pupil accounts, privacy-friendly

Only the teacher signs up. Pupils appear by first name, initials, or a code you choose — no email addresses, no parent app, no behavioural profiles following children between years. Schools with strict pupil-data rules sign off fast.

Houses that feel real

Give each house its own name, colour, and crest or logo, or start from the built-in Wizard theme. A board that looks like the competition — rather than a generic spreadsheet — is what gets pupils invested in their house.

Classroom house points

Split the class into three or four houses and award points for effort, behaviour, homework, and taking part. Each pupil's points roll up to their house, so the standings on the board are always live — no separate tally sheet to keep. Reset each term for a fresh start.

Whole-school house system

Run the classic four-house system across every year group. Add every pupil to a house, let form tutors award points from their phones, and put the combined standings on the big screen in reception or the hall. One board, hundreds of pupils, one live total per house.

Reading and behaviour points

Fold your reading challenge or behaviour system straight into the houses — books finished, minutes read, kindness caught, punctuality. Because points aggregate by team, a quiet reader who would never top an individual ranking still visibly moves their whole house up the board.

Sports day, spirit week and house events

Score a one-off house competition without disturbing your year-long board. Spin up a fresh board for sports day, a spirit-week colour war, or an inter-house quiz, tally points event by event, and crown a winning house by the end of the day.

Table teams and tutor groups

Houses don't have to be four grand names. Use the same board for table groups, reading circles, tutor groups, or a summer-camp colour team — any set of teams whose individual members earn points that add up to a group total.

"We use Leaderboarded to keep track of class points throughout the year. Classes can earn points for a variety of activities/behaviors. The class with the most points receives a pizza party. The kids enjoy the friendly competition and it motivates them to make good choices. Thanks for providing a fun, easy way to track and display points!"

"I am SUCH a fan of Leaderboarded! I use it to keep the real-time participation score for my students in my Spanish classes. I found it back when we had the COVID-19 restrictions in classrooms. I went back to using Leaderboarded with my classes last year, and they loved it! It was VERY motivational."

"As an educator I really appreciate how easy it is to update a points system in the middle of class, and I can embed the scoreboard into my school's LMS so all the students know where to go check their point totals."

"SIMPLY BRILLIANT! I'm using the site in the classroom to engage and motivate students and it's been great! I award students points for completed assignments, good behavior, and test scores, and students can also lose points for uncompleted assignments and bad behavior. It's been an amazing tool!"

Common Questions

Three steps. Create a house-points board and name your houses. Add pupils to each house by first name, initials, or a code — import a class list or type them in. Share the presentation link or open the board full-screen on your classroom or hall display. It takes about a minute, and only the teacher needs an account.

Yes — that's the whole point of a team board. Every pupil sits inside a house, and the points you award them add straight into their house's running total. You can show both the house standings and the individual points, so pupils see their own contribution and the house sees the combined score.

Yes. Award points with a tap and deduct them just as easily. Most teachers keep deductions for conduct only and award generously for effort — you want the board to motivate rather than punish — but the choice is yours.

No. Only the teacher signs up. Pupils appear by first name, initials, or a code you choose — no email addresses, no pupil-facing app, no parent-app install. Anyone with the presentation link can view the live board from any browser on any device.

Yes. Every board has a public presentation link you can open in any browser on a smart TV, Chromecast, Fire Stick, or projector. Plug it in, open the link, and the house totals update live as you award points. See the TV display guide for setup details.

Yes. There's a built-in Wizard theme, and you can set each house's colour, upload a crest or logo, and rename the houses whatever you like — Gryffindor and Slytherin or your own. The Harry Potter house points guide walks through the themed setup and point-rule ideas.

A classroom leaderboard ranks individual pupils. A house points tracker groups those pupils into teams so their points add up to a house total — the same board, arranged around houses instead of individuals. Use this page when the competition is house-vs-house; use the classroom leaderboard when it's pupil-vs-pupil.

Yes — the free tier covers up to 25 pupils per board on 2 boards, no credit card required and no Leaderboarded branding on the public board. Enough for a class house system all year. Paid plans ($19/month Plus, $39/month Pro) unlock custom crests and colours, more boards, and whole-school groups. See pricing.
