Christopher Perrott found SchoolOnline:

• Significantly reduces teacher workload“Over the past three years, the use of SchoolOnline has dramatically supported the teaching of Mathematics, providing teachers with a bank of step-by-step video tutorials and resources whilst reducing teacher workload. What was originally used as a tool to supplement key concepts through guided practice has now been embedded into daily teaching lessons both as whole class activities, independent work or to help correct misconceptions that may arise. As content is quality assured, teachers feel confident in using the resources provided, especially as it has helped reduce the time that it originally had taken to find, locate and tailor to the needs of their children.”
• Significantly reduces attainment gap“Within the school, pupils across Year 6 have access to the SchoolOnline platform. Children are encouraged to watch tutorials and discuss the methods used before applying them to a series of questions. Furthermore, being able to revisit videos and resources, has allowed children to consolidate their learning before moving on too quickly. By providing open access, it has allowed children to develop greater ownership over their learning as they actively seek out the necessary resources to develop their understanding and reduce the attainment gaps.”
• Significantly improves teaching efficiency“Actively seeking out necessary resources can be time consuming for all teachers, especially when children are working at different levels of ability. SchoolsOnline provides teachers with the relevant tools required and as such has reduced the time it may have originally taken to plan and resource. Being able to personalise the learning has also allowed teachers to stretch their more able whilst also helping to consolidate the learning when misconceptions or errors may have arisen.”
• Significantly improves attainment“Individual needs of the children can be carefully considered through the online resources provided. They can be used to work alongside the lessons being taught, enhancing the delivery and consolidation task or they can be pushed out as extension tasks to stretch learners. Because of this, we have seen attainment continually improve year on year ensuring better outcomes for all learners.”
• Significantly builds student knowledge“Open access for our Year 6 children has meant they can revisit and review areas taught in school anywhere, any time. Whether it be through the teacher directing children explicitly to resources or children actively seeking out areas to improve, children have shown to be more confident and shown through their improved subject knowledge.”
