Overall, I don't think we use Evidence Me in the way it was originally intended, so it isn't a perfect fit for our needs. However, it is still the best option we've found. I understand that Evidence Me is designed to work as a timeline of observations, which is particularly beneficial in EYFS settings. In our school, however, we use it more as an end-of-year scrapbook to celebrate children's experiences. Because of this, uploading everything at the end of the year is very time-consuming. It would be incredibly helpful if there was a bulk upload feature where I could upload multiple photos and then tag the individual children within each image. At the moment, I have to create a separate observation for every single photo. This is because if I upload multiple photos into one observation, I can only tag the same group of children across the entire observation. In reality, each photo often contains different children, so I can't accurately tag them without uploading each image individually. This makes the process extremely repetitive and time-consuming, especially when uploading a large number of photos at the end of the year.

Only fit for purpose for data. It is virtually useless for engaging parents and not easy to use at all on an iPad.

In my opinion, the BOOKR Class app is a very useful and very, very engaging tool for supporting language learning in the classroom, and even for individuals.

I gave this a 10 because regular use of the platform leads to noticeable improvement in students’ reading results.
