Thank heavens for my Dodo (Acad) Pad. Honestly, I don't know what I'd do without it. I note everything down on my Dodo (Acad) Pad and keep track of what's due and when, who's coming and when, where I'm going and when, and so on. Even better, it goes right on through 2011. I really don't know where I'd be without it. Or where my marbles would be.
The Dodo (Acad) Pad is practical and helps with keeping track of deadlines, appointments, etc - but it also has a fun, quirky side to it, making the dull responsbilities of life that little bit more bearable. Read more

For the past few years, I've bought a family organiser diary from Organised Mum which allows me to keep tabs on every member of the family on a day-to-day basis, but when I was offered the chance to review a Dodo Acad Pad, I decided to see how it compared. Well, the answer is, very well indeed. Read more

....all I can say is that I love it.....basically it's a wall planner based on the academic year, which is great for those of us that work in education and students that are just heading back to school/college/university. They also sell filofax pages, a desk pad and a mini acad-pad for all types of Scholars and Lecturers....
Not only is it bright and funky it's also purple which is one of my favourite colours!!! Each week is set out across a page which has five separate columns for each day of the week, for you to divide up as you chose. Read more

Diaries and I have always had an uneasy relationship....it seems to me that the best kind of organiser
anyone could create is one that's predesigned for a messy disorganised
mind to run riot with pen or pencil without feeling bad about it. Such
as 2010-11's Dodo-Acad pad. For those unfamiliar with the world of Lord
Dodo, the acad pad is the student sibling of the original (more
family-centric) Dodo Pad desk diary. Each week has an adaptable
grid-style planner (in the acad-pad's case, covering the academic year)
with an accompanying page opposite containing random facts, quotes,
humour and most importantly - space to doodle. The pad works as a
functioning diary, but also has a 'random' feel Read more...

I have got the Dodo Acad-Pad desk diary for 2010/11 and can’t wait to
start using it properly. Each week has its own double page in the diary
with one of those pages being for the 7 days and the other free for
notes. Every page has a different design which really brightens up the
diary and just makes you want to use it! Read more...

The Dodo Acad-Pad is a great resource for kids at school. Following the school year as opposed to the Jan-Dec year, this pad has a page per week with 5 boxes per day, with plenty of room to fill in. Each page is opposite a blank doodling page with some witty artwork and comments.
My son is merrily doodling on this opposite page, leaving the page with writing on and important details still clear so it is actually legible! The diary features the well known dodo of the Dodo Pad brand.
With important (and not so important) dates on the calendar, this book is sure to please any son or daughter and help them keep slightly more organised. It’s also great for Mums and Dads – this is because kids will love to fill them in and if they let you look you will now have an idea of what they’re doing at school! It would also for those more mature students who work, bring up children and go to college! |

Loved by students, scholars and absent-minded professors, or indeed anyone whose life revolves around the academic calendar, this year’s new diary will not disappoint. |

The weekly grids divide each day in to five handy columns, throwing even the most disorganised student/teacher/ academic an organisational rubber ring. |

The Acad-Pad has an original quirky style... It has lots of space for doodles and a useful pocket for papers. It will appeal to those who feel Organised Mum is a bit too ‘domestic goddess’ and instead plan on being gracefully and humourously disorganised this year. |

The ACAD-PAD, spawned a few years ago from the Dodo Pad (Britain’s best-loved desk diary for more than 40 years), continues to score top marks by becoming one of the most highly sought after academic diaries available. |

Perfect, we thought, for busy families. |
