Low-cost, secure and easy to use, ReallySchool (app and online portal) helps teachers and TAs to capture and assess EYFS and primary pupils’ learning and development quickly and effectively – while boosting parental engagement and supporting the continuation of learning at home.

Teachers and TAs can capture photos, videos and audio clips to provide key evidence of learning as it happens and assess against a range of different frameworks (which can be changed on the fly), subjects, learning areas and age bands in one observation – as well as selecting and changing the number of students taking part.

Student learning journals and a wealth of reports display the progress of students, classes and year groups, helping school leaders to monitor whole-school teaching and learning. To help support children learning at home, teachers can send out home learning activities and guidance directly to the parents’ version of the ReallySchool app. They can also use badges to acknowledge pupils’ achievements, which can also be shared with parents to celebrate their success.

Developed in close consultation with primary school teachers and TAs, ReallySchool offers real benefits for everyday use – and delivers more time for teaching!
