Recommended Usage

EDClass

Determining a minimum usage for observing impact on students is challenging due to individual differences. However, based on our experience, we recommend an average of one hour of engagement per subject, per day as a general starting point. This level of interaction is often sufficient to see positive outcomes in knowledge acquisition, attainment, and behaviour. It's crucial to emphasize that individual needs vary significantly. Factors such as learning style, subject complexity, and student support requirements influence optimal usage. EDClass offers flexibility to accommodate diverse learners, allowing educators to tailor the platform to specific student needs.

Increased usage over time is linked to improved attainment above predicted grades.

Most Helpful Reviews

EDClass

Farhan Patel, Learning Mentor: This is a great service to use as an educational platform and also as a safeguarding children at home tool
Kyle Dixon, Inclusion Lead: I would recommend EDClass for a number of reasons. The first being the that the customer service team are extremely helpful. No matter which member of the team answers the phone, everyone is always there to help no matter what the query. Genuinely really nice people who are very helpful. Requests are always followed up straight away with no delay which is especially helpful for a school as it is really fast paced and things need to be put in place quickly. The second being the accessibility for staff. The daily attendance alerts you receive via email and text mean that you don't have to make time to look at student attendance on the account. This is helpful for me as I have such a busy schedule and don't have time to look everyday.
John Vincent, Vice Principle: The resources are appropriate for every key stage and the level of work maps into our curriculum. The platform is easy to use for staff and students. The safeguarding elements are a key feature.
