A resource which provides children with exceptionally high quality resources to help them develop a deeper understanding of the diverse nature of our world.

Graham Macaulay found Lyfta:
  • Significantly reduces teacher workload
    Lyfta provides a wealth of exceptionally high quality content, aligned by theme and topic. This helps teaching staff to find exceptionally high quality resources with minimal effort.
  • Significantly reduces attainment gap
    Due to the highly engaging, interactive content on the Lyfta platform, pupils of all abilities are able to engage and access the resources at an appropriate level for them. This helps to scaffold learning and enable every child to succeed.
  • Significantly increases student collaboration
    Using Lyfta has enabled our children to collaborate in rich and meaningful ways. Drawing on their own individual interpretation and response to the resource provided, children are able to then share their reflections whilst building upon other children's thoughts and feelings.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency
    There is no doubt about it, the resources on Lyfta are some of the best quality resources for exploring values and human behaviours. By providing children with access to extremely high quality content, teachers are able to be more efficient through precise questioning and discussion to challenge learners.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Children are able to effectively explore values and human behaviours, that they may not have done previously. This is particularly relevant for some curriculum areas which teaching staff may have found difficult to explore without appropriate resourcing.
