I love Lyfta, it's so easy to use, incredibly powerful, everything at your fingertips, tackles big questions, high quality and growing. 🥰

Amanda Pickard found Lyfta:
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Tackling difficult subjects with primary 1s can be very challenging, the stories are a powerful way to introduce things like change and loss and use making thinking visible strategies to scaffold learning. Learners are able talk about what they think - hugely powerful
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency and productivity
    Super powerful, real, human stories, accessible, high quality resource in one place makes teaching these subjects so much easier - everything at your fingertips 👍
  • Significantly reduces teacher workload
    Easy to search for appropriate stories, all the resources with support materials in one place - every teacher's dream 👍
  • Significantly improves teacher knowledge and skills
    Every time I look at a story I learn something new or take something new away from the teaching and learning experience.
  • Does not save school money
    I really want to be able to champion Lyfta in my school and Local Authority but the cost per teacher per year is a stumbling block. If we could have a school login there would be a bigger chance of making sure that this is a sustainable resource for everyone, creating a legacy with our learners.
