Most Helpful Reviews

BlueSky Education

Tom Hardy, Assistant Network Manager: Great, thanks!
Simon Jackson, Deputy Headteacher: Great potential, but system needs improving. Things like mandatory focus on an observation (I don't want one, it is in the title of the form), mandatory training evaluations (short and long term) are really frustrating. I would like to be able to personalise these forms more and remove some of these fields.
Sally Filek, Performance & Development Coordinator: Very good system, but it would be made easier if as Administrator you could clear completion of say objectives if impact statements were missing without having to contact Blue Sky. Also to reinstate leavers who return.
