Used NetSupport School for 5 years+

The features allow the teacher to manage the class effectively across a range of situations. We find it more intuitive to use than rival products, while at the same time being feature-rich.

Al Metcalfe found NetSupport School:
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Using the quick questions to test knowledge and using the feedback with thumbs and smiley faces to show understanding
  • Moderately increases student collaboration
    Using the journal feature allows the sharing of information between students and group leaders
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency and productivity
    You can set timers to persuade students to do things in a certain period of time, blank screens to prevent students going off task, present on their screen either your screen or other students work to show good examples.
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    The test designer can mark work automatically, but the downside is you have to create the test yourself. The hand in & collect feature can be used to collect work from students.
  • Significantly improves teacher wellbeing
    NetSupport allows you to view screens close-up and to take control and offer support without having to get physically close to the student.
