Recommended Usage
Pobble is aligned with all writing curriculum approaches. This means teachers can use Pobble every day or every few days in an equally effective manner.

Each learner is different though we would recommend, dependant on the reason for using the platform, that around an hours learning per subject, preferably per day is suitable and will demonstrate impact. Though it is important to note that this is very much dependant on the needs of the learner, this is why we provide flexibilty in our approach.

Most Helpful Reviews

Pobble

Sarah Bullivant, Assistant Headteacher: It’s a fantastic resource
Chelsea Hughes, English Coordinator: Pobble has been a constant in my teaching for around 4 years now. Without it, I lose the attainment of all children within the class to try their best in writing. They want their work to be celebrated, no matter how small the progress is. With the help of Pobble presentations, resources, high quality stimuli, moderation, WAGOLLs and more teachers are able to get the children there!
Kate Bodle, Deputy Headteacher: Pobble has many facets, inspiration for students and teachers, simplifying moderation, a safe publishing space and more! Plus events and competitions to engage learners! Great help and support too!

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.
