It isn't perfect but the functions they have work really well, and there is lots in development too. The customer service is excellent, and they are very responsive to suggestions. The apps are easy to use and really enhance the system, for example it is super easy to tick off homework on the app if it is completed on a different website. Not 10 yet as the detentions module needs more development and the parent app should mirror what the teacher ticks off as completed not what the student ticks off.
Tina found Satchel One:
- Slightly improves attainment“Unsure, as we have only used it properly since lockdown. Prior to that we posted homework through it but didn't use it to monitor work. We haven't yet measured attainment since lockdown”
- Moderately reduces teacher workload“Easy to post homework (reuse tasks), students submit via the app so no need to log when it comes in, no need for extra records of work, seating plan can replace printing of class lists or photos, easy to add behaviour through the seating plan. All of these save time”
