QR codes save class time: students scan a worksheet to open the video, scan the board to answer an exit ticket, scan a poster to find the club sign-up form. For the school office, they put newsletters, events and payments a scan away for parents. QRfinity’s codes are free, need no student accounts, and never expire.

One code, every week
Print a dynamic code once, on the noticeboard, the planner or the fridge magnet, and point it at whatever is current: this week’s newsletter, this term’s timetable, the next parents’ evening. Change it from your dashboard, or set a date to switch automatically.
Tips for the classroom
- Make codes big enough for tablets. At least 3 cm on worksheets, 15 cm on a board or poster for the back row.
- Label every code. “Video: photosynthesis” tells students and parents what they’re about to open.
- Test on school devices. School filters can block some sites; scan from a student tablet before the lesson.
- Keep a link for students without a device, printed under the code.

Static codes have nothing in between: they open the content directly and nobody is counted. Dynamic codes count scans without storing IP addresses, names or accounts, and site analytics never run on our short links. See our privacy policy.
