Real Fast Reports was created by two experienced educators, Peter Gravell and Angela Newton, who shared a simple but powerful goal: to dramatically reduce the time teachers spend writing reports, without compromising quality or personalisation.

Since launching in 2022, Real Fast Reports has helped teachers write 676,000 reports as of December 2025, saving countless hours across schools in the UK and beyond.

The Founders

Peter Gravell is an Oxford University Physics graduate with teaching experience in leading UK state and independent schools. He has also served as Head of Science at an international school, giving him first-hand insight into the pressures teachers face at all levels of education.

Angela Newton graduated top of her year in Chemistry at Durham University before beginning her teaching career through Teach First. She went on to become Head of Science at a leading UK independent school. Her background combines classroom excellence with a deep understanding of curriculum, assessment, and what great feedback looks like in practice.

Together, Peter and Angela bring both technical expertise and real classroom experience to everything Real Fast Reports does.

The Value of Personalised Reports

Despite the demanding process, the founders deeply understand and champion the significance of well-crafted reports. As parents themselves, they experience the joy of receiving reports that truly reflect their children's personalities. This not only demonstrates the teacher's understanding and care but also fosters trust and respect, encouraging parents to engage with their child's learning.

A Game-Changing Solution

In 2022, advances in AI language models opened up a new possibility. Peter and Angela recognised that this technology could be used to support teachers, not replace them, by handling the heavy lifting of drafting high-quality, personalised reports. Within months, they developed a prototype and validated its appeal and effectiveness through user testing. In summer 2022, they made history by launching Real Fast Reports, the world's first school report writing tool powered by AI.

Proven at Scale

By summer 2023, teachers had already written over 100,000 reports using Real Fast Reports. We passed the milestone of 500,000 reports written in March 2025, reflecting sustained growth and long-term adoption by schools. As of December 2025, the platform has supported the creation of more than 676,000 reports, making it one of the most widely used AI tools of its kind in education.

While competition has increased, our focus remains firmly on quality, accuracy, and personalisation - ensuring reports sound professional, authentic, and truly reflective of each student.

Looking Ahead

Our mission hasn't changed. We believe report writing should be efficient, sustainable, and even enjoyable - not a source of stress. We're proud of the trust schools and teachers place in Real Fast Reports, and we remain committed to continuously improving the platform based on real classroom needs.
