Most Helpful Reviews

Kapow Primary

Hina Malik, SLT/ English Lead/ Curriculum Lead: I would like Kapow to give presentations which can be edited according to pupils needs across the class. The rest is all there.
Megan Price, Teacher & Subject lead: It improves everything we need it for (e.g., planning, leader subject maps, modelling videos, subject knowledge). Not 10/10 because we usually have to take each slide and adapt it to our school which is also time consuming but not KAPOWs fault. Sometimes, flicking between interactive slides on KAPOW is a bit confusing.
Colette Jones, Class Teacher and Leader of Learning - Communication: I have found using Kapow very useful and helpful.

Encounter Edu

J Williams, National Education Coordinator: Its an exceptional resources to seed ideas. however since the Pan-Canadian expectations vary from the original source documents some triage of the content is required. This takes time. The one thing teachers claim not to have a surplus of. The score of 9 accounts for this 'slight' inconvenience.
Laura Rodwell, Eco council leader and Ta: I think this is an important part of children learning and the video and live lessons are amazing.
Shawna, Professional Development Specialist: I've already shared it with my colleagues
