We present and discuss a tool that checks the correctness of simple programs constructed according to the structured programming method. The tool is intended to provide interesting feedback to students learning the programming method: it detects programming and/or reasoning errors and it provides typical counter-examples. We argue that our system is better adapted to our pedagogical context than other verification tools and we report on preliminary experiments with the tool in a third year programming course.
