The details you keep in your head, written down
Who is close to test standard, who still owes for last week, whose theory runs out next month — it is a lot to hold in your head across thirty pupils. Lesson Diary keeps each pupil on record so the answer is one tap away.
Pupil profiles
Every pupil in one place with contact details, pricing, packages and their whole lesson history attached.
Progress notes
What you covered and what to work on next, saved against the lesson so nothing gets lost between weeks.
Test dates
Theory and practical test dates on record, so you can see who is booked and who is running out of time.
Payment records
Log who has paid and who owes you against each pupil. Cash, card or bank transfer — the record stays with you.
Pupil portal
A private view for every pupil
Every booked lesson gets a private link for that pupil — no account or app needed. They see your contact details, their full lesson history, and can cancel the one they're on straight from the page.
-
Private by design
Each link works for the one pupil it was generated for, nobody else.
-
Instant cancellation alerts
You're notified the moment a lesson is cancelled.
-
You stay in control
Cancelling is all a pupil can do — rescheduling and everything else still goes through you.
